Well, it's chilly this time of year, so I got busy making some heart-shaped hand-warmers. We always do a cookie exchange with all my besties, but as we are all getting a little more health-conscious (aka older), a little gift is more appropriate... So when I saw these cute handwarmers that Jessi made at Practically Functional, I knew what my girlfriends were getting this year for Christmas.... I had lots of sweater remnants from upcycled sweater pillows I've made, so it was fun to make these cute little heart hand warmers in lots of different colors... :) {naturally my favorite colors are the mint and teal...: so retro cool... !!!} Now let's hope that they like them as much as I enjoyed making them for them.... Hope your winter is nice and cozy warm! P.S. Just pop these little rice bags into the microwave for about 30 seconds and place them into your pockets or gloves before you go outside on a chilly day I link up to a number of these bloggy friends.... as well as to Savvy Southern Style, Today’s Creative Blog, Home Stories A 2 Z, The Shabby Nest, The Shabby Creek Cottage, Thrifty Decor Chick, Between Naps on the Porch

So cute! I just made some out of socks and they are not very pretty. They do the job in our mittens though!

Hi Crystelle, I found you through Heidi, who recommended your post to me :) These are so cute, and I'd love it if you'd consider sharing them on my Waste Not Want Not Wednesday link up, a link party for sharing frugal tips, articles and gluten free recipes!

This is such a cute idea! I need these this winter. I am always cold. Maybe someone will see this post and make one for me.

I love this...wish I had seen it in time to put some in stockings! I bet my son would play outside much longer with these in his mittens. And hubby would love them for the cold drives to the train station. Great idea! Popping over from Nap Time Crafters...I blog over at http://thehandleyhome.blogspot.com, so come say hi sometime!

I made some of these for Christmas too. I used a old red sweatshirt and wrapped them in a brown bag with a cute little "heart warming" tag on it. I'm posting them to my blog tomorrow evening...for a Valentine's Day idea.
