Valentines Day at Modcloth

If your looking for a new dress for Valentines I think ModCloth is the only place to go. I've never seen so many red dresses in one place before!

1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8

I don't wear a lot of red but I'm loving these pretty dresses from ModCloth. I don't think I could pull of one that's fully red and lacy, but I'm loving number 1 and number 6!

Which is your fave? Do you wear red on Valentines?

DIY Valentines: Shrewsbury Drops

Hi all! As promised in this post, I have got creative and come up with my own DIY gift for Valentines Day.  These shrewsbury drops with heart-shaped jam filling are super yummy, with a subtle lemon flavour.  Try them out!

Shrewsbury Drops

125g butter
125g sugar
1 egg
1 Tbsp grated lemon rind
180g flour
60g custard powder
1 tsp baking powder
raspberry jam


Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.  Add egg and lemon rind and beat again.  Add sifted dry ingredients and mix well.  Make mixture into small balls and place on a baking tray.  Flatten biscuits slightly.

Using your finger, make a heart shaped indent (shown below).  

Spoon jam into indent and spread with fingers.

Bake at 170 degrees Celcius from 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Make into cute parcels for valentines gifts, or serve in a bowl with a red ribbon like I have.

Hope you enjoy these!

DIY Valentines Gift Ideas

Happy February everyone!!

I've been getting lots of Valentines Day inspiration from some crafty ladies who made the things below. I don't normally celebrate Valentines Day but I may have to get into the spirit of it this year!

From The Purl Bee: Find the instructions here. All you need is some felt and a needle and thread!

Can you believe these were made from toilet rolls? Have a look over here to find out how to make them.

These look so good!  You can find the recipe here via Thirty Handmade Days

I love this cute card made with birthday candles!  From here.

Find the easy instructions for how to make this cute candle here, thanks to Eventful Life.  An awesome way to liven up old candles and get in the mood for valentines!

I think its about time I got creative myself! Give me a few days, and I'll see what I can come up with!
