I keep a small four foot pine tree on a washstand throughout the year. I call it my “Round the Year Tree.” This past week my grandsons had a good time creating decorations for February to place on the tree.

Most of our materials were purchased at the dollar store. The wire I had on hand from other projects.

Materials:

1 package foam Valentine heart stickers

1 package small Valentine Stickers

Several strands of wrapped floral wire cut in four inch pieces (pipe cleaners, string or yarn, opened paper clips, or other types wire can also be used.

Directions: You will need two matching foam hearts for each ornament. Leave the backing on the foam hearts. Apply small stickers to the front of the foam hearts. Remove backing paper on one foam heart. Place a piece of wire in center of heart with about three inches extending from the top. Remove the backing paper from the second heart and apply sticky side to sticky side on wire topped heart. Match edges as closely as possible. Bend top of wire into a hook shape. These Valentine Ornaments are light and will hang on just about anything. Fun, inexpensive and easy to craft with primary-aged children.
