COLORFUL WATERCOLOR VALENTINE

These Valentines are easy to make, fun to get, & provide lots of fun at home too. Watercolors are always a big hit with kids and you don’t need many supplies to use them- just water and paper. Plus they don’t stain surfaces or clothes (like some paints) and easy clean up.

I made these two years ago for my daughters class and a few of her friends too. I wanted a non-candy valentine. It was perfect because incorporated art as well. They were a big hit.

To make:

1.) Print out templates. Cut out.

2.) Sign your child’s name on template. Remove paper inserts from watercolors.

3.) With a hole punch, punch a hole at the top of template (see example). Slide string through and attach to the watercolors.

Notes: If buying for a class, buy watercolors in bulk, you’ll get a better price. The going price for watercolors is about $1.00 each (not professional grade). You can get them also at Target, Walmart, Hobby Lobby, DollarTree.

* The Valentine Templates are an original design. The templates are for personal or classroom use only. By using them, you agree that you will not copy, or reproduce the templates, except for your personal use, noncommercial use.
