We are thrilled to have been chosen to be a #BostikBlogger for this year, and have just received our first box of goodies. We have made some simple Valentines Crafts that are so easy and quick to do – we thought you would like them too.
Mummy is really excited about this monthly activity – we don’t craft as much as she (or I) would like as we are very busy with one thing and another. So we are making the time, at least once a month, to make some crafts together – big sis joins in and quite enjoys it too.
I wanted to make some nice things for Mummy – and big sis Lea helped me. We made a card, a vase for some flowers, a gift bag and decorated a little box, I am going to ask Nana to help me get something special to pop inside! I made the card – and chose what to put on it all by myself.
Do you like my card? I think I did quite a good job!
Mummy found a plastic cup for us to decorate for a vase, and she gave us a plain black gift bag which we decorated with some sparkly mesh and I stuck on hearts, a button, a bird sticker and ribbon. You can stick on anything you want to, to make it pretty.
What do you think of our simple Valentines Crafts? I really enjoyed making them, I love glueing and sticking, and by choosing simple crafts it means I can join in too.

I love it! It looks so simple but so creative and easy for the kids to join in too. There’s also something to be said for home made gifts.

My girls (especially my youngest) LOVE crafts! We pretty much have a whole cupboard dedicated to craft stuff these days! Thanks for the lovely Valentines ideas!

I absolutely love that card. I come from a family where homemade cards were always seen as much more special than shop bought. Great job x

Each of the crafts are very cute. I like that they’re simple enough you could do them with kids, as kids love to give their loved ones things.

My kids are all grown up and my grandkids are still too young to handle scissors and glue. I will share this post with friends who have school age kids. I am sure they’ll love it!

Ahh these cards look lovely. I’m hoping now my daughter is a bit older she might make me a valentine’s card this year… even if I do have to help her with it. 😉

Oh, they are beautiful. I haven’t thought about making valentines cards with my girls, it’s a nice idea and I’m sure their dad would appreciate it. I love those daffodils too, are they early this year? I saw some in a shop yesterday, haven’t seen any growing locally yet though. I think I might treat myself to some, they are such a lovely colour to brighten up the house.x

Love what you have made. We were bostik bloggers last year and it was so nice to get a box of craft goodies every month. It’s a shame Lamb has totally gone off arts and crafts at the moment and I really struggle to get him to make stuff! xx
