Valentine Spool Decorations

Hi!  Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!  Lori here with a cute Valentine’s Day decoration idea.  I love retro valentines, pretty papers, ribbon, and wooden spools, so I put them all together to create some fun decorations.

Here’s what you’ll need:

• Retro Valentines Element Pack – Quirky Twerp 
• I Luv U Printable – Mari Koegelenberg
• Hearts Whimsy Paper Pack – Karen Lewis
• Spools
• Ribbon
• Paper Clips
• Twine

Print valentines from the Retro Valentines and back with cardstock to reinforce.  Mine are printed approximately 3 1/2″ tall.  That seems about right for the spools which are 2 1/4″ tall.  Print out paper.  I used 1 3/4″ strips by about 6″.  Adhere to spools.  Insert paper clips into spools.  If they don’t fit tight enough, wrap them with masking tape first.

Print out round sentiments from I Luv U printable.  Mine are about 1 1/4″ diameter.  And tie to spools with twine.

Decorate paper clip with ribbon and insert valentine.  That’s it – easy as pie!  Cute valentine decorations to keep or give away!

Happy Valentine’s Day!
