Homemade Valentines Day Gifts
Heart Shaped Frames
To make a wonderful and unique gift on valentines day, you can make a heart shaped frame. You need the bottom and the top of a small heart shaped box, bright color paint, photo, cord, silk or fresh spring flowers and glue. Cut out the middle of the box top. You will need it as a frame. On the box bottom glue the photo you have chosen before and attach the top frame over. Decorate it with fresh flowers if you want or with silk ones, so your Valentine can keep the box for longer. On the back side glue a piece of cord for a hanger.
Flowers Placements
You can use wilting bouquet or flowers and leaves from your garden to make these wonderful placemats. You will need also a clear contact paper and scissors. For each placemat you want to make cut 2 pieces approximately 20 - 30 sm. Lay it on the table and peel off the baking piece. On the sticky side of the paper arrange flowers and leaves. With fingers press everything to flat. From the other piece of contact paper peal the backing off and stick it down over the flowers arrangement. Cut out the edges of the flowers placemat.
Romantic Rose Wreath
This is very easy but in the same time very elegant idea. You can make this wreath using dry roses or silk roses. Also you will need heart shaped styrofoam base, spray in a color to mach the color of the roses and glue. First you have to color the styrofoam base in proper to the roses color, then let it dry. This will help you to hide all the white parts of the styrofoam. Cut the roses’ stems as high as possible without falling apart. Stick the flowers with glue and completely cover the wreath. Glue a piece of wire on the back and hang it.
