Here are some last minute Valentine’s box ideas if you have put off helping your kids put theirs together until now. Our kids usually make theirs at school but this year I guess we missed the memo so they both came home yesterday and told us that they need them by Thursday. They were a lot of fun once we got started and our kids had so much fun helping glue everything together. Our kids decided that they wanted Valentines monsters so for the dragon we just used an old soda box and covered it in green paper, the face went on next (I love the expression on this one, it makes me laugh) and for the finishing touch we used QuicKutz Bow Tie and glitter.

Next was the butterfly. This one used hearts for the wings and an old CD for the head. Trista used a lot of stickers that came in the Authentique’s Lovely collection which if you haven’t looked at it it is a great collection if you have a lot of Valentines Day photos because you could put together a lot of layouts in a short period of time with it. The again we used the bow tie as her bow on her head.

Again if you are pressed for time try these out, from start to finish these only took a few hours for the pair of them.
