When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. And when Mother Nature gives you extreme cold weather...make 'heartcicles'!!
Shape foil into desired shape, making sure its one continuous piece (it will otherwise leak). I made various sizes...
...and mixed different shades of pinks and reds. Place outside and let winter do the rest.
Have a lovely day!

Gorgeous, Lucy. Really lovely. Cute idea!
ReplyDeleteThat is one of the cutest ideas ever.
ReplyDeleteI love that! No pun intended... The red is so pretty against the snow...think of all the other fun shapes and colors you could create to make a pretty display!
ReplyDeleteA twist on those "beach" writings...fun!!
ReplyDeleteSo creative and pretty! I love the artistic flair in all your posts!
ReplyDeleteLucy- What a darling idea. We will have lots of snow for Valentines Day and I am thinking of giving a party. Wouldn't that be a great way to come up to the entry? What did you use as colorant? Please don't tell me it was deer blood or jello- ;>D Hugs-Diana
