How to to Make a Valentine's Day Kissing Ball

I love the on-demand kissing directive of mistletoe during the holidays--so why not extend the tradition to Valentine's Day? Here's how to make a good luck kissing ball--I mean heart. Enjoy!

Things You'll Need

• Styrofoam heart wreath form
• Ribbon
• Feathers
• Card stock
• Strait pin
• Lip gloss (ha!)

Instructions

1. Decide what color feathers you'd like to use (red or white are easily available). Feathers symbolize help from the angels.

2. Glue feathers to the foam heart until the heart is completely covered, and let dry completely.

3. Handwrite or print a card on card stock to hang from the bottom of the heart. Something like "kiss me" is perfect. Cut out the phrase in a circular or heart shape.

4. Punch a hole in the card stock and thread with thin ribbon. Tie knots in the ribbon to symbolize your intertwined lives. Pin the other end of the ribbon to the bottom of the heart.

5. Hang the heart from a doorway, staircase, over your bed, anywhere you want your sweetie to pass, and therefore have to lay a sweet one on you!
