I haven’t done crafts in so long. There are just too. many. things. that are more of a priority, and when I do find free time, I’ve been reading like crazy. That or taking a nap.

This weekend, my girls and I made a 5-Minute Valentine Garland with just a few simple supplies. Easy peasy, just the way it should be done. This tiny project really helped brighten up our entryway. We love it!

Valentine Garland Materials

String (I used Baker’s Twine, but any ribbon or twine will do)
Scrapbook paper or cardstock
Heart paper punch
Hot glue gun

Originally, I tried attaching the hearts to the string with cute Washi Tape (you know I love it!), but the hearts kept popping off. Using a low-temp glue gun worked much better, and now they’ll hold up after the season so we can enjoy them again next year.
