Valentine's Craft Ideas
Love is in the air, and what better way to celebrate Valentine's Day than with a dash of creativity and a sprinkle of handmade charm? Here at Craft Box Club, not only do we love love but we’re all about heping the environment so why not ditch the mass produced cards and plastic gifts and take a look at our Valentines suggestions?
Whether you're a seasoned crafter or just discovering your artistic side, here are some delightful crafting ideas to make this Valentine's Day truly special.
1. Handmade Cards That Speak From the Heart
Origami Elegance
Fold your affection into beautiful origami creations. Heart-shaped origami envelopes or intricate paper cranes are unique and thoughtful gestures. My personal fave is this origami heart design. It looks really difficult but follow the video slowly and you’ll get there!
Spell it Out with Scrabble Letters
Craft personalized messages using Scrabble letters. Spell out your favourite terms of endearment or create a quirky crossword puzzle to solve together. Wooden scrabble tiles are widely available and so much fun for that added personal touch!
Doodle Cards
Unleash your inner artist with doodle cards. Let your pen flow freely, illustrating shared memories, inside jokes, and everything that makes your bond special. All you need is a felt tip and your imagination. Start by drawing a heart shape then doodle other little shapes around it. Check out the amazing Mr Doodle for inspiration.
