{i need s’more friends like you}

I am the holiday whore, remember?  I do not buy the cute + super easy store-bought Valentine’s.  You know the ones that your kids actually do themselves?  Haha!  No way Jose!  I’m the bust out the cardstock + cellophane bags + paper-cutter kind of Mom.

As of now, Bay still totally digs it.  I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again….one day she will not be caught dead taking these homemade Valentine’s to her school homies.  So, until then, I will make ridiculous Holiday crafts and enjoy every second of it!   ♥

I came across these adorable s’more Valentines’s right after scoring a bag of heart-shaped marshmallows from good ol Wally world.  It was meant to be.  I showed Bay and she was on board.

It may look like “screw that shit, ain’t nobody got time for that!”  LOL!  But, trust me – it was pretty simple and inexpensive to bust out 32 of these cuties!

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • heart-shaped marshmallows
  • 2 boxes graham crackers
  • 32 mini Hershey’s chocolate bars
  • 32 cellophane bags
  • printable
  • stapler

 

 

These marshmallows can be tricky to find.  Walmart ALWAYS has them during the month of February.  I also found them on Amazon for you non-Wally world peeps.

I always grab cellophane bags from JoAnn’s and use a 40% off coupon.  Google it!  Never pay full price at JoAnn’s!!

And last but not least, the super cute FREE printable!

Here are some other super cute ideas I stumbled on while searching for the S’mores!!!  Little Peanut Mag killed it in the Kiddo’s Valentine’s category!  They kept them sweet + simple 🙂

I’m super obsessed with this modern approach that Small Fry Blog posted!  Had the S’mores not already been done when I saw this one, I would have done it in a heartbeat!  Beyond simple!!!

A sucker + washi tape + printable.  DONE!

I surprised Bay and pulled out all our Valentine’s day decor this morning.  She woke up and was pumped!

Sarah P made us this LOVE banner years ago.  It’s got a place for life in our V-day decor ♥

What are you’re kiddos handing out at school next week?  Hope I’ve inspired you to get a little creative and make a semi-homemade treat 🙂
