Valentine’s Day DIY Garland

Don’t spend a lot of money on Valentine’s Day decorations! This simple craft is perfect for your kids to make and takes very few supplies. It’s great for fine motor skills development and is fun to make!

Instructions:

›› Cut heart shapes out of spare card board.

›› Wrap yarn around the heart, making sure to cover all cardboard. Tape the yarn on the back of the heart to get started and finish the yarn by tying a knot.

›› Connect each wrapped heart with a long strand of yarn.

›› That’s all there is to it! I chose bright colored yarn for my garland because it reminded me of candy conversation hearts, but you could pick more traditional Valentine’s colors. You could also adapt this idea for any holiday! Happy crafting!
