Stopppp these might be my favorite Valentine DIY yet 💘✨

I found them for $20 online and thought, hmm maybe we can do better!

I made the cutest heart wands and they were SO easy. I started with a large wooden dowel, wrapped the whole thing in ribbon with hot glue, then topped it with a satin bowl-filler heart from Target.

The best part? Adding all the different ribbons at different lengths so they trail and twirl when you wave them 😍🎀

Perfect for playtime, dress-up, Valentine baskets, or just a little extra magic around the house 💖

DIY • budget friendly • kid magic approved 💫

Hey everyone! My name is Alyssa Cummins and I’m a mom to three babies, 4 and under! I believe life is to be celebrated and I love creating and elevating everyday magical moments. I’m so glad you’re here! I’ll be sharing my favorite ways to create magic- whether it be seasonal, milestone or just everyday occasions.

Sun’s out, buns out 🐰☀️
The bunny topiaries are officially out and spring is coming 🌸
Linked my topiary bunnies + stone bunnies for anyone ready for spring styling 🤍

Adorable sparkly pink dress with feathers from Lola and the Boys! We added a gymnastics body suit to make it a little warmer (and less itchy!)

Here’s your sign to host a Galentines Day Charm Bar for your guests ❤️🌹🤍💌

Here’s everything I used + how I set it up so you can make one too 👇

STEP 1: The Base
I grabbed a mix of gold and silver chain necklaces so everyone could pick their vibe. Different lengths made it feel more custom 💫

STEP 2: The Charms (the star of the show)
I laid out a big variety:
💖 hearts
✨ initials
🌸 pearls
🔒 locks & keys
🎀 bows
Basically anything girly, sparkly, or sentimental

STEP 3: Organizing It All
I used small dishes and trays to separate everything so it felt like a real charm bar (and not a tangled jewelry box 😅)

STEP 4: The Tools
Set out:
🔧 jewelry pliers
🔗 jump rings
These made it super easy for everyone to attach their own charms

STEP 5: The Display
I added a cute sign that said “Build Your Own Charm Necklace” and sprinkled in bows + pink decor to make it feel extra special 🎀

STEP 6: The Experience
Everyone got to design something totally unique, and it doubled as the perfect take-home favor 🥹💗

10/10 recommend for girls’ night, birthdays, or Galentine’s 💌
Would you make a charm necklace with pearls, hearts, or initials? 👀✨

These oversized bows were supposed to be hair accessories… but I had ✨bigger plans✨ 🎀💘

I ordered a few multipacks on Amazon, added a little hot glue on the sides, and suddenly we have one long pink bow garland for Valentine’s Day 💗 I made this last year and then reused for a few other occasions- like my daughter’s birthday party. So easy and surprisingly more affordable than buying ribbon!

On Day 7 of 14 Days of Valentine DIYs we made our own little Valentine cake table 🎂💘

Instead of using paper, i found the perfect round pleated tablecloth for the cake layer — easier to work with and something we can actually reuse 🤍 not pictured is the 20 minutes we fought the butcher paper 😂

We added paper frosting details with this amazing garland and then added tiny cherries on top 🍒 and lace trim for a soft vintage touch 💌

But the real cherry on top was doing this with my tiny bestie 👯‍♀️

Love Letter DIY! I grabbed extra large paper doilies, red heart stickers, and red ribbon to create this satin look. I’m obsessed with how easy and cute this turned out!

Found the perfect class valentines for little boys! We love these foam air planes and huge fans of non candy treats for boys

Obsessed with my new floral workout set, I paired it with a sweet pink cardigan

Valentines basket details and cute pink as red scalloped cardigan

On day 2 of 14 Days of Valentine’s DIYs, we’re making pennant flags! These are always a favorite and they’re so easy to make.

Put these in:
🧺Love Day Baskets,
🗓️February 1st Baskets,
📖Playroom Decor,
🍎or even make for class Valentines!

Here’s my full tutorial:
1) download the canva template that I made and use my design or create your own! Just DM me “FLAG”
2) Print on 100lb premium card stock
3) cut out the flag and be sure to leave the flap in the margin to fold over the wooden dowel. Don’t forget to cut off the excess little triangles!
4) Heat up the hot glue gun and grab your wooden dowel
5) fold the white flap to the edge of the creative, it creates a sleeve for the dowel and hot glue
6) place hot glue on the line that you folded and add the dowel, wrapping the paper around it.
7) let it dry and then simply tie in your ribbon

Target’s doing their best diaper sale! Spend $100 get a $20 gc. Love to stock up for the month when they run this promo. My favorites are Millie Moon for babies and then themed pull ups for overnights

The fondue pot for new years was a hit! I have both of these and love them both equally. Cuisinart is definitely more high end, but the beautiful line wins every time when it comes to aesthetics.
