Valentine’s Day Craft Round Up 2010

I have been a crazy person crafting for V-day…but not just on my own blog! So I thought I’d round up some of my crafty goodies to share with you here. Most of them are really easy, and use things you might have on hand, so you’ve got a good chance of actually getting these done by Valentine’s day!

Easy-sew Valentines Chair Covers

Fun Felt Chair covers: some felt yardage, two seams, and you’re DONE. You can glue on the hearts or use felt stickers to make it go even faster…

Heart “felt” needle books

These are little needle cases or mini sewing kits you can sent as a “heart-felt” thank you! Full post HERE.

Heart Shaped Yo-Yo Hair Clips

Sweet little hairclips you can make in a snap- what could be cuter? Full tutorial HERE.

Valentine’s Day Juice Box Sleeves

Make your kid’s Valentine’s Day even a little sweeter by dressing up juice boxes for the class party. They can double as Valentine’s cards, as we did here, or you can just make up one or two to tell the children in your life how special they are. Read my full post HERE.

Cricut-cut vinyl stickers dress up plain vases

This is craft I made using the Cricut and some craft vinyl- when V-day is over, I just peel off the stickers and re-dress it for another holiday.

Foil-covered candy treats await inside the tissue-paper roses

I know these tissue-wrapped candy Kisses(tm) are an oldie but a goodie, but really- they are a great craft to make with kids for teachers, class parties…all those special folks in their lives. Step-by-step directions HERE.

Hearts in Bloom wall decoration

I literally made this craft for CraftsUnleashed (where I serve as the managing editor & craft concierge) with left-overs from other projects. (You can also recycle those heart-shaped candy boxes & make these for next year!) See how HERE.
