Valentine's Day crafts

Maybe you think that you are not talented for crafting, but we assure you that our Valentine's Day picks for you are really easy to make and you will enjoy making them. You will only need some colored paper, scissors, glue and pens.











For the dough:

• 1 pkg yeast
• 1 Tbsp sugar
• 1 cup warm water
• 1 tsp salt
• 3 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 ¾ cup white flour
• 1 ¼ cup whole wheat flour

For the filling:

• Mozzarella cheese
• Marinara sauce
• Turkey pepperoni

Combine yeast, sugar and warm water and let set for 5 minutes.  Mix remaining ingredients and then add yeast mixture.  Let dough rise, in a warm place, for about 1-2 hours, until double in size.
Roll out a small portion of the dough at a time, cutting two equal sized hearts.  Fill middle with a thin layer of marinara sauce, turkey pepperoni, and cheese and then layer the top with another heart and crimp the edges together with a fork. If you wish you can add some other ingredients into the filling too. Bake at 400 for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned.  Test to make sure dough is done baking.

2. Handmade gifts are special. Everyone loves getting handmade gifts or wearing something that was made just for them.

3. Handmade goods are high quality and  last longer. Because they are made from high quality materials and handcrafted by trained artists items that are handmade last longer than low quality imported mass produced items.

Why do we love all things vintage?

 

 

 

 Classics never go out of style. Period. 

The quality.We live in a society of mass produced goods. "Fashions" are churned out of clothing mills in third world countries. These factories make the most garments in the shortest amount of time possible all with inhumane working conditions. Quantity over quality is the name of their game. It's like fast food fashion. The quality of vintage clothing is simply unmatched by that of contemporary clothing, with the exception only of today’s highest end luxury designers. 

 The uniqueness. Vintage is Unique. When you invest in a vintage garment, you can rest assured that you will never walk into a room to find another person wearing the same thing you are. Wearing vintage assures that you'll stand out from the masses in a trendsetting outfit that accentuates your individuality!

Vintage Has History .  Whether or not you are able to discover it, every vintage garment comes with a story. Vintage clothing is more than just “old used clothes.” It is more than new unworn clothes. It is history, and art, and the stories of those who have come before us. Owning and wearing vintage clothing is a way of keeping those people and those histories and that artistry alive.Vintage and antique clothing is seeped in mystery and history, and learning or dreaming it is half the charm of wearing it.
