Wish I could eat all the sweets people prepared for the party, but I’m afraid the diabetes risk is holding me back.

first submission for the sweets category

I made some heart-shaped sugar cookies with chocolate topping for the inner heart portion

Spoiler: progress pics

dough (homemade)

raw shapes (handmade)

cooked shapes (heatmade)

choco filled pre-cooling and cleanup (messmade)

didn't post a pic of the choco process, since I had to be somewhat quick about it, but I just melted several chocolate bars in a saucepan and poured that into the cookies individually. then moved them to the fridge for an hour or so before cleaning up the shapes/choco mess for several of the cookies with some careful knifework

-Second entry: 3D Crafts-
Here it is, the clay sculpture is finally done! This is supposed to be some table centerpiece. It basically took days for the clay to settle in and dry which is why this takes longer to submit than the 2d craft, enjoy!

Spoiler: Proof and Progress (with bonus pic)

(I cut out the background for safety reasons but this pic is took during the time I sculpt)

And the first version of the sculpture (pic below)

Bonus pic (feat. Marshal plush)

Second submission: 3D craft!

Paper stars have become a vital part of my love language growing up -- I remember in high school I made 160 paper stars for my then-boyfriend, and I added small messages in each star if he wanted to unroll the paper stars. Anyway, fast forward to my now-boyfriend, my first anniversary gift to him was a container of paper stars as well, and I told him that I really loved making them because they were like little stars that fit in the palm of my hand. I know they were just simple origami things but somehow they made me happy. The next borthday I had, my boyfriend gifted me a jar of stars and included some polaroid pictures dangling by the jar lid and a small string of fairy lights. it was extremely pretty and I still have it to this day!

Needless to say, paper stars mean a lot to me, so I made some of them through the course of the week and collected them in this little jar. Added a small love letter as well to encapsulate how paper stars have been like a love letter to me. <3

Third Submission - 3d crafts

I made clay sculpey roses for a party table centerpiece. The bottom is the leftover clay mixed up and shaped into a vase.

Spoiler: Process

Made the flowers by cutting out clay and shaping into petals. Used the spoon to thin and shape the petal edges.

Made the base by shaping that lump of mixed leftovers. I used the green stick thingies to stick the flowers into the vase base.

Earlier pic when i had it set on a little plate. But then i added flowers and took away the plate, because i got paranoid that a plate is "pre-made item"

Second submission: Sweets
Made white chocolate letters spelling out TBT Happy Valentine's Day. The second TBT "T" unfortunately broke off when I was transferring it to the plate, oops!

Spoiler: Progress shots featuring my Brewster coaster

Cornet made out of wax paper, melted chocolate using the double boiler on the stove

Piped the letters onto wax paper

Put in the chocolates in the freezer for 20 minutes to be hard enough to transfer

Third submission: 3D craft
Paper rose bouquet and paper hearts, all made from a used insurance advertisement envelope (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!). Initially I wasn't going to color anything and have it be all white but it was hard to tell what was the rose petals and what were the leaves.

Spoiler: progress shot

My third entry!
Category: Sweets

I made some Valentine's themed chocolates!​

Spoiler

They didn't come out perfect, and despite my best efforts some bubbles got stuck in the molds. But hey, Sweethearts aren't perfect either.

My first attempt came out so bad, I had attempted to dye the almond bark I got and the pink came out okay, but the red chocolate broke and never set correctly, so I had to head back out and I got some colored candy melts to use instead.

Honestly I would do a third attempt, but it's Valentine's day today, and I have the flu and I just need to rest now.
