If you’re looking for a simple last minute valentine (and you collect paper towel rolls), this is it! Made with recycled paper rolls, paint, a hole punch, and a pencil. We used the Treesmart recycled newspaper pencils that I added to the Garden Seed Kit, but any pencil will be fine.
DIRECTIONS
Gather some saved paper rolls.
Have your kids add paint. We used tempura paint and then after they dried they added some designs with Craypas oil pastel.
Cut tubes into 1″ widths (we used a decorative scissors, but any scissors will work).
Punch a 1/4″ hole on each side of the cut circles and add your pencil. You will have to push a little to work the pencil in, but it should fit snugly and not fall out.
Form the circle into a heart and add a tag. The boys wrote “you’re sharp” on the front and signed the back.
Simple, Simple!
Enjoy the weekend!
