“Love”-ly Valentine’s Day Heart Projects

Today I want to share a few simple and easy Valentine’s Day DIY decorations.

I realize lots of folks do not decorate for Valentine’s Day, but for me, it is fun to have a few special decorations out for this one special “love” day.

A reminder in my home of just how much love I have in my life.

This $1 store unfinished hanging heart has turned out to be one of my favorite Valentine’s Day projects.

It was just oh so easy to put together.

I printed some floral paper on my computer, traced around each section of the heart, and cut them out.

Using Mod Podge, I applied the paper pieces to the heart, and replaced the jute twine with pink ribbon to hang.

That was it!

It is so “love”-ly.

A piece to pack up and bring out every year.

Another $1 store find were these paper mache heart boxes.

These paper boxes have a vintage inspired feeling to me and are so fun to decorate.

My boxes are simple. Simple is the look I love in most everything.

I painted my boxes white and added some Valentine decals.

Using the same floral paper I used on the wood heart, I covered the top of another.

Perfect little gifts when filled with chocolates.

I have a childhood memory of a large ornate heart candy box my Momma kept and filled with bits of little things when the chocolates were gone.

Hope you all have a few heart treasures out in your homes, or maybe just take a few minutes to think about Valentine’s Day memories through the years.

Love to all of you!
