Valentine’s Box Idea

Valentine’s day is coming!  I was picking up photos the other day at the drugstore and came to a screeching halt when I looked up to see the wall of valentine treats.  My heart fluttered.  Not gonna lie.  Heart shaped chocolate boxes, tacky silk roses, boxes of valentines and conversation hearts.  Oh. be. still.

This is a project I made a couple years back and I thought I’d share.  It’s a valentine mailbox using a vintage purse.  Something my little self would have loved to collect valentines in.It doesn’t take much:  a purse, some embellishments, ribbon and Mod Podge.  The paint is pretty optional.  If you’re a craft supply hoarder like me, you’ve got the stash ready!Mod Podge your paper pieces on.  Hot glue til’ ya drop the rest.Tie short pieces of ribbon onto the handle and away you go!
