Valentine's Twenty-Four Hours Tablescape As Well As No-Fail Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Wasn't Christmas only yesterday?  I can't believe that tomorrow is Valentine's Day!  Even if you lot haven't given it much idea <raises hand>, it doesn't have got long to throw together a particular tabular array to celebrate together with bask a few treats together.   

We don't become overboard for Valentine's Day, but I produce similar to have got a overnice dinner for our trouble solid unit of measurement to celebrate.  Our kids volition live on involved at a youth effect all weekend, therefore since they won't live on unopen to on Sabbatum nosotros had our trouble solid unit of measurement dinner terminal night.  

I took some fourth dimension yesterday morning time to set together a cute table.  You all know I similar to role what I have, therefore I didn't purchase anything for it.  I ended upwards amongst red, white, black, together with sparkle!  

The fresh flowers I had on mitt didn't function amongst the color palette, therefore I skipped them all together.  This cute guy check the bill, together with brownies brand a much nicer centerpiece anyway, don't you lot agree?  I used a few pieces of sticky-tack to secure the plate to the acme of the elephant therefore it wouldn't instruct bumped off. 

I gathered upwards all of my silvery together with mercury drinking glass votive holders, along amongst several milk drinking glass pieces.  Oh, together with disco balls!  Big together with small, the room was sparkling equally the Sun went down!  There are some acrylic gems scattered unopen to equally well.

The black, white, together with ruddy tabular array check correct inwards amongst the novel spotted chandy shades.

The kids each received a pocket-sized handbag of a few of their favorite treats together with some novel pencils for school.  Mechanical pencils...they dearest them.  

I promise you've made Chocolate Covered Strawberries before, but if not, they are therefore slow you lot have got no excuse non to!  I role the same method amongst the chocolate that I produce when making my Chocolate Covered Coconut Bon Bons.  I dearest this recipe because the chocolate forms a combat of a difficult rhythm out together with sticks good to the strawberry.  

All you lot demand is a handbag of chocolate chips together with nearly 1/3-1/2 of 1 cake of alkane wax.  This total of chocolate volition encompass nearly three pounds of strawberries.  

First, launder the strawberries together with allow them to dry out thoroughly.  Melt the chocolate inwards a double boiler (more detailed instructions on that here), deal the strawberry past times the leaves, therefore dip inwards chocolate.  Lay on a canvass of wax newspaper together with allow chocolate to harden.  That's it!
