Valentine's Day is just around the corner and for those of you who have kids in school, this means busting out the craft container and making some cute cards and mailboxes!
I found some adorable ideas to help you... Some of these we'll be doing at our house so be on the lookout for updates & pictures!
Monster Mailbox
To make this cute Valentine’s Day Box you will need the following supplies:
1. Spray paint your tissue box red (or other desired color) 2. Once the box has dried add pink foam hearts. I used the sticky kind, but you could also paint your hearts on as well. 3. Cut out two sections of the egg carton and spray paint (if it isn’t already white), hot glue googly eyes on.
4. Cut out teeth from the white craft foam and hot glue to the inside of the box.
