Valentine Book Making

15 years ago

Emily and I made these adorable little books from empty cereal boxes and deeply discounted craft supplies from Big Lots. The decorative paper, brads, and a complete Valentine rubber stamp set cost less than $5 combined. We will probably make several crafts from these materials combined with items from our Invention Kit. What better time of the year for a handmade gift than Valentine’s Day?

With some heart stickers, Emily turned her book into a number book. I numbered the pages 1-10, and she applied the corresponding number of heart stickers to each page.

I bound each book using a micro-hole puncher and some embroidery floss. Very simple!

Are you planning a handmade Valentine’s Day this year? I would love to hear about it! Leave a comment and share your ideas with us!
