Homemade Valentines

Valentine's Day is coming up quick! Boo and I made these Valentine's together to give out to her friends. It's simple and affordable! I was trying to create something that does not involve candy...just because I know she will be getting a lot of candies anyways, so there's no need to add more.

Materials:

* Tape - I chose Scotch Expressions for the color

* Pencils - a pack of 8 in the Dollar Bins at Target

* Large heart cutouts and a variety of stickers - I got these from JoAnn's on sale. The cutouts were 9 in a pack for about $2.

* Glitter glue - available at the Dollar Tree and 99 Cent stores

* Marker/Crayon - to have your child write their name on the back


Directions:
It's pretty self-explanatory, but first, I had Boo write her name on the backs of each heart cutout. Then she decorated the front of the heart with foam stickers:

We taped a pencil on the back:

Then I used glitter glue to make polka dots:

Done!

Good luck and have a lovely Valentine's Day with your loved ones!
