Valentine Crafts are a fun way to create Valentine decorations or gifts for those you love. Valentine Crafts can be created from recycled materials or things you can find at your local craft store. You can make eveything from festive wreaths, romantic center pieces, or perfect Valentines for your child’s classmates. Here are 7 fun Valentine crafts to help you celebrate Valentine’s Day.

1. Valentine Votive at bhg.com

Better Homes and Gardens suggest taking a small glass votive candle holder and fill partially with festive colored candy nonpareils or small glass beads. Make a few to place on the mantel or the center of your table. It’s simple, but absolutely gorgeous.

2. Crayon Hearts at familyfun.go.com

Disney Family Fun uses broken crayons and a heart shaped muffin tin to melt together this Valentine craft. I love this idea because it is simple, useful, and gets rid of all those crayon nubbins. Mixed any colors together or stick to pink, red, and white for a very Valentine look.

3. Valentine Coffee Filter Wreath at doityourselfdivas.blogspot.com

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.

4. Paint Chip Bookmarks at lindas-nothinfancy.blogspot.com

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.

5. Valentine’s Tree at kraftykat76.blogspot.com

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.

6. Friendship Blossoms at familyfun.go.com

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.

7. Valentine’s Day Frame at thekcexperience.blogspot.com

The KC Experince has a great Valentine craft that makes an excellent present. She suggest decorating an wooden craft frame bought at your local craft store with scrapbook paper, Mod Podge, glitter, ribbon, and embleishiments. You can also opt to paint the frame and decorate with foam shapes.

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?
