How Tuesday: DIY Love Note Tree
So, perhaps you noticed that this How-Tuesday is on a Wednesday? Yes, it’s taken me a few days to get back up to speed after coming back from the wedding. But, even though it’s Wednesday and not Tuesday, I still wanted to post this for you {Valentine’s Day is coming! And you’ll want to start this as far ahead of the special day as possible, I imagine, so I didn’t want to wait until next week :)}.
Kind of inspired by Emily in this post, this is a “Love Note Tree” that, as each day goes by, will get another heart added with a little note telling your love what it is about them that you adore.
materials needed: 14 paper hearts, hole punch, twine {or ribbon} and scissors, and a pen
step one: punch holes in your hearts
step two: write “I love:” on your hearts, filling in the things/reasons as you hang them on your “tree” {in my case, a branch}
step three: cut the twine in 4-6″ lengths, thread them through the hearts and tie step four: hang them on your “tree”
So there you have it! By the time Valentine’s Day is here, this little branch will be full of hearts. <3 And each one will have another thing about John that I love, written on it for him to read.
Do you have any little projects that you’re doing for your love? Or, if you have kiddos, that you’re helping them to do? I’d love to hear about them!
