What You'll Need:
- Bakers twine or string
- Natural items that fit with the valentines (rock, shell, leaf, acorn, bark, feather, pine branch/cone, and stick).
- Card stock
- Hole punch
- Glue
How to Make
- Gather all your natural materials.
- Print out the valentines (Printable One, Printable Two). Because some of the things are heavy, it's best to print using heavy card stock.
- Cut out each individual card.
- Put the natural item on the card and make one marks on either side of it.
- Take a hole punch or something sharp and make holes where the marks are.
- Cut a piece of twine long enough to wrap around the item and tie a bow.
- Thread the ends of the twine through each hole, wrap around the item and tie a bow. If the rocks or heavier things are still sliding off your cards, put a little glue behind them.
- Address your card and share the love!
