A little handmade paper puppet love...

Sage and I spent the weekend making 45 of these:

 We put a chocolate conversation heart in the mouth of each one.


Isn't that sweeet!? They're lots of fun...


We learned to make these years ago but I forgot how to do it so he re-taught me the steps. He was such a good teacher that we decided to make a video so he could teach you how to make one too. Here's his YouTube debut:



And here are the steps in order:

 


Happy Valentines Day!
