Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Construction paper
• Cardboard
• Hot glue
• Ribbon
• Scissors
• Candy hearts
• Window clings
• Paper heart doilies

1. Cut ribbons in lengths long enough to outline the door to your room. Hot glue candy hearts to the ribbon. Hang the ribbon on the border of your door.

2. Cut several hearts from construction paper. Attach ribbon or string to the hearts, and hang them from the ceiling.

3. Buy window clings at a dollar or party store. Put the clings on your window.

4. Make a wreath from candy hearts. Cut an O shape from a piece of cardboard. Glue candy hearts on the cardboard so that the bottom pieces hang off the edge of the wreath. Continue to glue hearts on until no card board shows through.

5. Make or buy a valentine garland. String the garland around your bulletin board. Decorate the back of your desk chair with the garland.

6. Post cut-out hearts all over the walls and closets. Use paper doilies and construction paper for the hearts.
