Printable Rainbow Danish Hearts
Next week is Valentine's day and today I've got another fun Valentine's Day Craft to share with you! I love seeing red and white Danish heart ornaments during Christmas. But why should we only make them in December? Why not make some Danish hearts for Valentine's Day too?
Yup. We're going all rebel crafter today.
Oh. And since we're breaking the crafting rules, let's ditch the traditional red and white colors for hyper-colorful rainbow colors instead.
That's right. Living on the wild side.

3D "I Love You" Hand Craft (And our Favorite Books about Love)
It's already February and I haven't yet put up any Valentine's Day Crafts this year. Oof! What kind of kid crafter am I?
I've just been so caught up in what's happening in our country and world that I haven't fully had the heart or energy to embrace doilies, flowers, chocolate, hearts.... basically anything Valentine's yet. But today I'm turning a new leaf. Here's my first Valentine's day craft of the season... these 3D "I Love You" Hands.
(They're not quite hearts and flowers and pun-ny sayings.. but it's a start, right?)

Colorful "Stamp and Paint" Heart Art
Ever try
out a project, expecting one thing and then getting something
completely different? That’s what
happened with a recent art adventure. I loved this stained glass art with toilet paper rolls and never had a chance to try it out. It seemed so easy. Stamp, wait, then paint! Boom.
Easy and colorful kid art!
Well, my preschooler and I've started making Valentine's Day Crafts and made a Valentine’s day
version….with unexpected results!

Shark Valentine Card Box
Sometimes I wish I could be a kid again just to experience the magic of different holidays. Do you ever feel that way? As a child New Years seemed cooler, Christmas seemed more magical, and Valentine's Day was way more romantic. Now that Chuck's getting older, I see him getting excited about holidays too.... and I LOVE it.
Here's a fun Valentine Card Box that I recently designed with Chuck in mind. (He loooooves sharks.) Isn't it hilarious that the shark "eats" the Valentines?
You can find out how I made this Shark Valentine Card Box at MollyMooo Crafts!

Send High Fives to your Valentine!
Are you looking for a unique and simple idea for a Valentine's day card? Or, are you looking for a quick way to send someone some encouragement? How about sending them some high fives?
This is the 3rd installment in my funny Valentine's Day craft series. (To see the other ideas, check out my "Valentine, you rock!" Rocks and "You set my heart aflutter" Butterfly Notebooks.)
Lately Chuck hasn't really wanted to do any crafting. But I loooove making things, so I've been trying hard to figure out other ways we can craft together. I've noticed that while he may not like painting or drawing, he does seem to like using technology. Light bulb moment! So instead of usign paint or plaster of paris to make traditional hand print crafts, we used technology!
