Here's a cute Valentine's treat WITH a secret ingredient but WITHOUT the calories...
Felt Sweet Heart Sachets! My 6-year old daughter and I had so much fun putting these together.
Supplies: Felt from the craft store in "Sweet Heart" candy shades, StazOn ink in blazing red, disappearing ink pen (sewing store), heart cookie cutter, small rubber stamps, sharp scissors, FabriTac other fabric glue (and a sewing machine with red thread IF you like) and last but not least... Swiffer Sweeper cloths in Lavender-Vanilla.
Trace the OUTSIDE of the cookie cutter and cut out-- 2x for each heart
And trace the INSIDE of the cookie cutter for the middle of the heart. To make the cutting easier, use the smooth side of the Swiffer cloth.
Sandwich the Swiffer cloth between the felt.
We used read thread to stitch around the outside, but FabriTac or other fabric glue would work too.
Next, stamp some classic Sweet Heart candy-ish sentiments on white fabric. We used some upcylced white demin jeans!
Adhere sentiments to hearts with FabricTac... just a dab in the middle works
These fun little sachets would be perfect to tuck into trunks or dresser drawers... or give as gifts.
Calorie-free Valentine's cuteness. XO
