A Valentine, for me?

I saw this easy Valentines craft on Pinterest....yes, of course, Pinterest....I thought they would be really cute to hang on the kids bedroom door knobs, to collect Valentines from us, or other friends, family members, this is my rendition.

You will need.....

Paper Plates (I used red and pink from the dollar store)
Ribbon
Hole punch
Stapler
Paper doilies
Stickers (I used sticky foam hearts)
Glitter letters (if you want)
Paper hearts (I used a heart paper punch, and punched some really pretty paper)

Take two paper plates, cut one in half and flip it over. Staple the half piece to the round plate, so that it creates a pocket.

Punch holes all the way around, about half an inch apart.

Thread the ribbon through the holes, leaving enough at the top to make a loop for hanging.

I glued the doily in the centre, I thought it looked extra pretty, no biggie if you don't have or don't want doilies :-)

Now decorate, and hang in an obvious location!
