A Simple Rose Gal-entine

Trader Joe’s carries the cutest mini cans of white and rose wine.  I picked up a few last summer for the beach and thought they were pretty good.  (Mind you, I have zero taste or credentials in rating wines – my fave red is $8 at Costco).  When I was shopping last week, I came across them in stock for the first time in a while .  They were sitting there so pretty and pink that I couldn’t resist getting them to hand out as gal-entines to the mamas at the bus stop!

I carefully looped a single strand of ribbon through the pop-tab on the can and then tied on a few more ribbons and a tag from there.  I think they turned out so cute!  The tags are from the Dixie Delights Shop (now closed for Valentine’s orders) and the wine is $5 for a 4 pack at Trader Joe’s.

Speaking of the shop, Mother does have a few Valentine’s bracelets for this year.  They are so cute stacked with last year’s or alone.  And she left off the pink so that they can be used at July 4th and Christmas too!

I hope your week is off to a sweet start.  Back in the fall I somehow thought making “well visit” check-ups for the boys and myself in February would be a great idea.  I had mine yesterday and felt like a crazy person going to extreme extremes not to touch anything or even breathe for that matter.  Now I’m looking forward to the same rigmarole with the boys today.  I think next year I’ll make them all for summer.
