Ten Projects for A Special Valentine’s Day

These Valentine’s day crafts are an easy and fun way to decorate your home or create a gift for someone you love.

I generally try not to wait till the last minute when it comes to decorating or planning for a holiday.  But even if I do, I usually find projects that are easy to make and frugal! These Valentine’s day crafts are an easy and fun way to decorate your home or create a gift for someone you love.

A round up of ten projects and valentine's day crafts.

I am so excited to share with you that I have joined a wonderful group of ladies who host a monthly blog hop with the theme “Ten on Ten”. I can see you scratching your heads and wondering what that must be. Well, on the tenth of every month, ten of us will be teaming up to share different projects. So for the price of one… meaning me, you will also get another nine bloggers who share their projects and ideas on the same theme. 

This month we decided to start the year running and dive right into Valentine’s day. And so I present ten projects for a special Valentine’s Day.  Be sure to scroll all the way down to see the rest of the ladies’ posts.

Wall Decor using a Tray and Stencils
This lovely wall decor was repurposed from an old wood tray. Keri of Repurposing Junkie created her own stencils and then added them onto the wood. I think this is a great Valentine’s day craft, and it’s rustic enough to be used all year long as well.

Gift From the Heart
This little heart was made thanks to my son’s enthusiasm when he was young. It is a piece from a wooden basket. He managed to break it and I in turn repurposed it into this sweet gift idea using decoupaged paper.

Framed Heart Craft
Using a frame as a backdrop, I created this simple idea and added a heart made out of twine wrapped wire. It is very easy to make and after you are done you can still use the frame and add something else in the front.

Love all the projects you’ve shared and thank you so much for including the bandana heart pillow in your round up. I’m off to see all the inspiration your friend have shared

  7. Valentine’s Day is MY favorite holiday to decorate for! I have been making new projects for weeks now haha in addition to what I already have. I really like the branch with the book page hearts – very cute!

  8. I love all of these Mary, and what I really love is that they are relatively simple and many use things you might have on hand. I love how you repurposed the broken heart so you can have your son’s gift forever.

  9. Time goes too quickly. I haven’t taken my tree down yet. Love all these projects for valentine’s day … the flowered heart! Oh, my!

  12. Lovely ideas, I especially like Katrins paper hearts. It is actually my Birthday on Valentine’s Day and this year is a particularly significant one so I may be putting a few decorations up..

  13. What a great collection of Valentine projects, Mary. I always try to make something for my family on Valentine’s Day because I think it means so much more when you take the time to make something homemade. I particularly like the stenciled tray and the paper spirals heart. Is that called quilling!

  17. Ten on the 10th sounds like a fun idea, I’m looking forward to seeing what you come up with each month. You’ve collected some really lovely ideas for Valentines here.

  18. These are all cute projects and so thrifty! I don’t decorate for Valentine’s Day but usually hand make a few cards and send them with coffee gift cards inside.

  19. I can’t believe it’s almost Valentines Day already! Loving these sweet ideas. I hope I get ahead enough to actually do a Valentines project this year! Pinned 🙂

  20. Mary, I’ve always loved your big red heart you made. I’m wondering if it made its way from Greece with you? I also love many of the other great ideas you shared.
