By creating this delicate wall ornament you’ll be ready for the best holiday of the year. Valentine’s Day crafts are easy and fun to make. Swap the glitz for an old time touch like a fabric wreath. Cut fabric into leaf shapes and paint with white glue thinned with water to the consistency of heavy cream. Let dry, then staple the stiffened leaves to a cardboard ring. Shape extra leaves into poinsettias fastened with a center brad.

Special Attraction: Woman's Day
Valentine’s Day is my most favorite holiday of the year. I have a long list of individuals that I like to send special gifts or just reach out to. With these great Valentine’s crafts now I can give them something creative and innovative.
