DIY LEGO VALENTINE TREAT BAG TOPPERS I have all three boys in school this year, so I wanted to create a simple Valentine that the boys could give out to their class that wouldn't take a lot of time, but would still be a lot of fun!

I've used them for birthday cupcakes and treat bags before and thought they would be a great to include in a little Valentine for the boys to pass … [Read more...]
