Yay my beloved February, you made it! In honor of Valentine's Day and my favorite month February, I have a great Valentine and free printable to share with you.

I don't know about y'all but my boys absolutely love Legos. A Lego theme Valentine for their classmates seemed fitting. These Lego heart necklaces are easy and fun to make.

 You need 2 Lego Coupling plates (part #4188189) per heart. These plates are about 20 cents each and can only be ordered by phone directly through Lego by calling 1-800-835-4386 (US or Canada) or 1-860-749-0706 (outside US or Canada).

You also need a chain or ribbon or whatever you want to use to make the necklace part.

Print out our free printable circles (below) on cardstock. Punch them out with a jumbo circle puncher. Punch a small hole for the chain to go trough (in the proper spot of course) and attach the paper circle and heart to the chain or ribbon. Write the to and from on the back side.

That's it, now you have a fun little Valentine!

To those of you that took a few moments to comment in my last post, THANK YOU! I appreciate you taking the time. So glad to hear your thoughts and opinions. It seem it does not bother you if I blog a little more about myself  or what I am doing. :) Hopefully this will reignite my blogging fire!

I recently had an opportunity to dabble in jewelry casting. Pretty fun stuff! You make a mold from this plaster like substance and shoot or should I say fling hot, melted, liquid metal into the mold to create a piece of jewelry. Have you ever seen jewelry designs done in wax? Well it's done that way to burn off and leave the design in a mold. Some items will burn off themselves and do not need to be done in wax first. Things like twigs or plastic....like legos.

 These were so fun to make. And VERY neat because they look exactly like a real lego. They can almost even snap together. If I worked on them longer I could actually get them to. I love the detail on these. The mold was so good to pick up the detail in the lego. You can actually read the word lego on one, mega blocks on the other. And this is kind of a horrible picture but check out detail on the back. I tell ya just like a real lego! You can even read the part numbers lol!

I made these sterling silver legos for my boys and gave them to them for Christmas. Needless to say they loved them. What boy doesn't love legos right? Hopefully we don't step on one of these during the night. Ouch!!!

Sorry these are not available in the shop.
