Here we have a great simple gingerbread house design assembled with all kinds of Valentines Day goodies. This would be a great gift and can be stuffed with even more goodies for a special gift.

Red, White and Blue Wreath

972155_482585565147922_1440769029_nDo you love this wreath? Create it yourself with little time or money. This is made from a small/medium grape vine wreath purchased at your local craft store. You will need a small American flag and a variety of red, white and blue flowers in various sizes. Insert stem of your first flower into the grape vine and pull and tuck the stem in the back. Continue doing this with colors as you move around the wreath. You can permanently affix the flowers with florist wire in the back. Finally stick your flag in and hang.
