Simple Hand Warmers Tutorial
Today I am sharing a simple tutorial for a project that is perfect for the the cold weather ahead....hand warmers! We love hand warmers at our house and take them with us on winter walks, caroling, and even slide them into our packets when we are out playing in the snow.
