#1 Playing Card Heart Wreath

Everyone has a deck of cards laying around, right? Put one of the spares to good use and suprise your loved one with some cute decor for when they walk in the door. All you need is 2 decks of cards (pulling the hearts only) and a hot glue gun. Start with the bottom of the heart, and hot glue each higher piece in the shape of a heart until it connects at the top.

#2 Wine Cork Heart Wreath

Sticking in the wreath theme here. Again, you just need a hot glue gun and some wine corks (we know you have some lying around. We literally just went through the Xmas holidays). Great for a centrepiece and comes together real quick and easy for some last minute V-Day decoration.

#3 S’mores Mason Jar Kit

Easy as pie, er, smores. Shove chocolate marshmallow and gram cracker into a mason jar and print out a nice little label. Pop them in the microwave for smores on the go.

#4 Thumb Print Mason Jar

This one is for the parents. Paint up a mason jar and get the little ones to use their thumbs. You will have to grab a few flowers but trust us, it’ll make a cute as hell gift for your partner in parenthood.

#5 Kiss Ballons

No real explanation needed here. White balloons and lipstick, have at er to gussy up the date night.

#6 Candy Heart Garland

Mimic those gross and oddly addicting candy hearts by grabbing some post-it notes and string. Get the kids innvolved and the messages will get even better.

#7 Valentine’s Day Candy Terrariums

Some more simple V-Day decor. Grab cinammon hearts, candy lips, and all the favourites in red and pink and layer them in for an edible terrarium (probably don’t eat the glass though).

#8 Conversation Heart Coasters

Back to the candy hearts! Grab some wooden hearts, wood paint, and your best gal pals for some Galentines Day fun.

#9 Valentine Slime

I know, but this one is for the kiddos. All you need are sequin hearts, fine pink glitter, and pink food coloring. It’s squishy and weird just like everything else kids enjoy.

#10 Pipe Cleaner Heart Rings

Don’t read too much into this….if you are getting a ring you are getting a ring. But in either case, all you need for these rings for the whole family are some red and pink pipe cleaners and some twisting skills.

And there you have it, folks – a whirlwind tour of some of the most delightful Valentine crafts the internet has to offer.
