GUEST BLOG: Happy Heart Day is almost here!

Hi Shanty-lovers!

My name's Megan Clark and I co-own hifrienddesign.com (You might know us by the cheeky wine bags you've seen at Shanty: 'lush' 'booze hound' and 'you're a hot mess'? Ring a bell?)...but most importantly, I'm a Shanty-lover, too, and have been for years. Maggie and I have been working on the boutique's brand since the beginning. I'm so honored to have been a part of the process and love how it's ever changing and growing.

Anyway. Maggie's asked me to guest blog today, so I have a teaser for you all for Valentine's Day. Myself and Kirsten Nieman of Restored Style worked up a little DIY project that we want to share (My business buddy, Jennifer, would have lent a hand too, but she was off cavorting in New Zealand - lucky duck!). It involves a little printing, cutting, crafting, baking....and then gifting!

Without further ado....

-----
Happy Friday! Since Valentine's Day is around the corner, we've whipped up FREE, downloadable labels. There are five different labels and each can be used in a variety of ways.

 Each download includes instructions, tips and chic cards that double as a gift tag.  

Click, download, print, and craft!

Here are a few ways to use the labels/tags:

Clear Paint Can (complete with stacked cookies/brownies)

Clear/Heart-Patterned Cellophane Bags (filled with candy corn/sweethearts)

Mini Brown Bags (filled with homemade truffles -- or even better, trinkets from Shanty!)

As for supplies, you can pick up nearly everything featured above (except for the homemade cookies) at Michaels. The red and white striped twine can be bought online at Whisker Graphics. I'm pretty sure the ladies over at Shanty could help you fill a few bags with their goods, too. What a great Heart Day gift that would make!

Hop on over here to download our downloadable goodies and cheers to many wonderful heart day gifts. It's never too early to surprise the loves of your life with a little valentine!

Sincerely,
Megan, Jennifer and Kirsten
