Hello DecoArt readers. Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching! Are you planning a Valentine’s Day party or looking for an easy treat idea? These heart shaped treat boxes make a great party favor for kids and adults. I believe in creating holiday treats without the hassle and these small boxes are so easy to make that you can easily make enough for a whole classroom.
Items needed:
- Americana Multi-Surface Satin Acrylics 2oz - Pink Cadillac
- Paper Mache Heart Boxes
- Foam Brush
- Embelllishments
Instructions:
Apply 1-2 coats of paint, allowing the first coat to dry for at least 30 minutes before applying the second coat.
)
I only painted the outside of the container and left the inside as is. This is a personal preference but if you plan to use unwrapped candy I recommend not painting the inside.
)
Add stickers to your paper mache treat boxes. I’m using sequin heart stickers and Happy Valentine’s Day tags from my local craft store.
)
The rosettes with tags on top are also stickers. What’s great is that stores normally carry a variety of cute tags and stickers right around this time so check the seasonal aisles for small stickers. However, you can add a lot more than just stickers. You can decorate these small boxes with lace, ribbon, doilies, rhinestones, and so much more
)
Fill them with candy, small trinkets or love notes.
How do you prepare for Valentine’s Day? Do you make any home décor projects or treats to give away?
