Valentine Coffee Filter Wreath

Valentine Coffee Filter Wreath Looking for a Valentine craft to decorate your front door? With a pack of coffee filters, a straw or Styrofoam wreath and hot glue gun you can create a beautiful wreath. Do It Yourself Diva suggests soaking the filters in tea and red dye to get perfect Valentines colors. After the filters have dried, fold them in half and glue the folded edge onto the wreath. Continue gluing filters to the wreath until it is full.

Paint Chip Bookmarks

Paint Chip Bookmarks If you are looking for a simple Valentine’s gift, consider making this craft project from Linda’s Nothin’ Fancy. Gather up a few paint chip samples from the local hardware store. For a more colorful look choose a chip that has pink and red colors. Purchase a heart shaped hole punch from your craft store. Punch small hearts along the side of the paint chip. Punch a regular hole at the top of the paint chip to tie a ribbon through.

Valentine’s Tree

Valentine’s Tree Krafty Kat knows that decorating trees isn’t just for Christmas. Her Valentine idea involves taking a tree branch and spray painting it white. Place the branch into a decorated pot and hang hearts and other Valentine crafts from the tree.

Friendship Blossoms

Friendship Blossoms If you are looking for a simple way to make Valentine’s for your child’s class consider this idea from Disney Family Fun. For one friendship blossom you will cut 3 hearts, 2 leaves, and 2 circles from scrapbook paper or card stock. Poke holes in each and slide a small sucker in the middle. Finally secure the paper to the sucker stick with tape. Write a short message on the leaf.

Love Birds Wall Art

Love Birds Wall Art Make this as a gift for a friend or family member, or just make it to hang in your own home — either way, it's a quick but completely sweet DIY!

Paper Hearts Garland

Paper Hearts Garland As much as it would pain me to destroy an old book, this garland is so pretty, I'd have to work through it. You could also use old sheet music.

10

Photo LOVE Blocks

Photo LOVE Blocks You could make this with any photos, for anyone, and even with any word (like a last name)... what a good idea!

11

Origami Dollar Hearts

Origami Dollar Hearts Slip these into Valentine's Day cards for the kids - they're easy to make and they won't want to spend them, so they'll never be "broke."

UPD:

These origami dollar hearts are not only a whimsical way to give a small gift of money, but they also turn a simple dollar bill into a work of art. The folds will captivate their imagination, and the transformation of currency into a symbol of love can make financial gifts feel more thoughtful and personal. If you're worried about them unraveling the heart to spend, pair it with a gentle note encouraging them to keep it as a memento, or better yet, start an origami collection. A delightful blend of craft and kindness, these hearts will surely be treasured!

12

Burlap Banner

Burlap Banner I've made burlap banners for almost every holiday you can imagine, and this one, for Valentine's Day, is next on my list!

13

Heart Wall Art

Heart Wall Art All you need for this craft is a canvas, some paint, some glue, and some buttons. It's so easy (seriously, the hardest part will probably be painting the stripes straight) but so cute!

Valentine crafts are fun. They are a great way to decorate your home for the holiday or make presents to give to your friends and family. What are some fun Valentine crafts you plan to make this year or enjoyed making last year?
