title pic {Free Printables!} Valentine’s Day Party

February 8, 2012

You can host a Valentine’s party just like this one- using all FREE PRINTABLES! Deanna from Mirabelle Creations shared this beautifully sweet party with us.

In Deanna’s own words…

I put together a small table, using  FREE Valentine’s Day ”Owl Always Love You” printables. I styled the table as something I would do for my children (and spouse) for dessert on Valentine’s Day, a Valentine’s Day breakfast, an after school snack or even a Valentine’s Day playdate.  On the table, I included blueberry muffins, strawberry heart-shaped fruit kabobs, strawberry milk and Valentines chocolates.  The table also included conversation hearts, wrapped chocolate bars, peppermint marshmallows and cotton candy.  It was a very inexpensive table.  Here is a breakdown of the costs:

Printables:                   FREE!

Strawberries: $2.99
Muffins: $3.29
Chocolates: $3.99
Strawberry Syrup: $2.50
Conversation Hearts: $2.00
Chocolate Bars: $3.00
Marshmallows: $2.00
Cotton Candy: $1.00
Ribbon: $5.00
Total: $25.77I already had extra straws, doilies, tablecloths, serveware and paper, used to make the pink paper fans.  Although I love throwing big parties, with big budgets, for special occasions, it is nice to be able to make something special for a holiday, without having to spend a lot money.   Also, as a mom of two, it is not always feasible to spend hours on a dessert table for holidays, especially since Valentine’s Day falls on a Tuesday this year.  This table provides some inspiration for a beautiful, yet simple and inexpensive way to celebrate Valentine’s Day with family and friends!
