I’m kind of a geek for cool packaging. There are times I buy things just because of how thoughtful the packaging is, so I was elated with how these turned out. Have you ever seen a sour cream container at a fast food restaurant? (I also remember some popsicles that used to be packaged like this.) Today I will show you how quick it is to put together these Valentines that give quite a punch in the packaging!

To make the Valentine treat holder you will need:

+ free printable at the end of the post

+hot glue or super tacky tape

+scissors

+A treat to fill them with. You can use candy or non candy with these, which is one reason I love them!

To put the Valentine treat holder together:

+ Cut out free printables. There are both rectangles and circles to cut out.

+Write in the “To/From” fields.

+ Fold sides to overlap where “To/From” space is. See pic below. Overlap about 1/4″ and hot glue together.

+ See pic below. Glue bottom sides together flat.

+Glue on Valentine sentiment (circle)

+Fill Valentine with treat.

+Glue top sides together the opposite way of your bottom.

These are super cute to hand out or give as gifts. I’m filling a few for my hubby!

I love that you can match the color of the sentiment or mix them around. They are all made with coordinating colors so any combination would be super cute.

I hope you find someone to give this extra special Valentine to!

You can check out the sentiments that are included:

Each color comes with 2 wrappers with a different pattern on each one.

I love decorating my mantel for the holidays.

So I thought I might make a printable Valentine bunting.

I love vintage themes, and I was able to go to a vintage fea market last weekend —Fleaology, where I found a pretty RED vintage crate.

It gave me an idea to create a vintage-themed bunting.

I printed it up and strung it with some red and white bakers’ twine. So easy!! I love the way it looks on my mantel.

I wanted to go with a clean Valentine theme for the mantel. So I chose a green wreath that kind of reminds me of Spring. Then I hung a red and white heart ornament from the middle of the wreath and added a red and white polka dot ribbon on the side. Super easy and simple.

I also added some red and white plates. This is an easy way to decorate for Valentine’s Day. You can take a plate and add a simple vinyl heart to the center. You can cut them out with your Silhouette machine, or just hand-cut the vinyl out and stick it on a plate.

SUPER easy. 

I also added some Ikea wooden candlesticks. I use these all the time. The white color is so easy to use for all kinds of holidays and seasons.

I also used some white and red vases, also from Ikea. I love the red and white theme, along with hearts and greenery  = an easy theme for Valentine’s Day!!

My husband helped me figure out how to make the bunting. And yay — we made SIX different printables. Perfect for ANY type of decorating.

You can print them out at home, or send them down to your local Kinko’s store for an easy way to decorate!!

So here are the six (!) printables!

They come in FOUR sizes – with or without the background, so make sure you get the size you want.

Be sure to estimate your space. There are 15 flags to a string, so multiply that by the width of the flag, and figure you’ll need at least that in inches to make your bunting hang right. So, if you’re choosing the giant size, you’d need 8×15 inches, or 120 inches … 10 feet! You could also do them in two rows, so you could just print an extra heart flag so you’d have four total — enough to put on each end of each of two rows.

(You can always just download a different size, but just make sure you have the size you want before you pay to have them printed somewhere or use your printer’s ink on them!)

Tiny size — about 2.5 inches wide and 4 inches high. This size has the letters only with white backgrounds.

 “Smallest” size — about 5 inches wide and 6.5 inches tall. Both versions are below:

“Smaller” size — about 6 inches wide and  7.5 inches tall. Only the white-background version.

Regular (giant) size — about 8 inches wide and 10 inches tall. Both versions.

Happy Decorating!!
