So if you need some cute tags or labels, water bottle wraps for school parties, colorful banners, or even some fun printables to attach to some kisses or small chocolate bars, Lauren McKinsey has got you covered! She now has over 20 Valentine’s Day printable collections available & I guarantee you’ll be able to find something you’ll love!
I just wanted to share some pics of her newest collections. Most of her collections are available in both a boy and girl styles/colors. And remember that you don’t have to purchase a whole collection if you don’t want/need to. You can simply choose the items you need right now, but if you love her designs and want access to ALL of her printables for the next year (which you will!), don’t forget about purchasing an annual membership in the cute club for $89.99 per year – such a great deal!
I just want to squeeze you collection
I Love You collection – for boys & girls
Superhero Valentine’s Day collection
You Make Me Happy for boys & girls
Hopefully you’ve found something that will be just perfect for those last-minute Valentine’s Day needs! Have a great week!

People had decorated them so cute and I decided I wanted to do that this year and make one for each of my kids, so as soon as I saw them in the dollar bins at Target, I snatched up 3 of them. Then I saw this darling idea at Wants and Wishes Design. She did a 14 Days of Valentine’s Day series on her blog last year where she chose 2 people that she anonymously delivered a special Valentine’s Day treat to, starting on February 1st and ending on Valentine’s Day. On the last day she revealed who their secret admirer was. I LOVE this idea and decided I’ll do something similar for my kids and maybe a secret person or two, if I’m really organized, haha!
So I’m incorporating both the little mailboxes and the 14 Days of Valentine’s idea. Each morning starting on February 1st I’ll put a little surprise in my kids’ decorated mailbox. I’m going to use the fun tags that Debbie at Wants and Wishes created for each of the days and I’ll use some of her darling gift ideas along with some of my own, tailored more towards what my kids specifically love.

Here are 2 of my 3 mailboxes…number 3 is not done yet, but I wanted to get this blog post done so you could start planning now if you want to do this fun activity. As I mentioned, I got my mailboxes in the dollar bins at Target. I’m not sure how many Targets still have these because I think they’re a hot seller! BUT, I have seen the paper mache ones at Hobby Lobby and you could totally use those as well!
I’m not a scrapbooker, but I LOVE scrapbook paper and embellishments. So bought a Valentine’s Day scrapbook kit and used the paper, stickers and ribbon to dress up my mailboxes. Obviously you don’t have to make your mailboxes as fancy as I did, you could simply get some fun alphabet and Valentine’s Day stickers to decorate them, or even let your kids decorate them with stickers or foamies!
Here are some of the gift ideas and printable tags that Debbie created for her 14 Days of Valentines. She has a post for each of the 14 days, so I have links to each of the days below where she gives you exactly what to buy and where she purchased her supplies along with the link to download the printable tag – it’s wonderful! Debbie also has a store on Etsy where she sells her graphic designs for parties, gifts, invitations, treat bag tags and more! She has some really fun ideas…check it out!!
Day 2 – Love You More Than Cake
Day 6 – Cozy Up With Some PINK Hot Chocolate
Day 8 – Bursting With XOXO For You
Day 9 – My Heart Beats For You
I can’t wait to start this fun little activity…I just know my kids are going to love it! And so would a secret person or two who maybe needs a little extra love in their life right now 
Have Fun!!
