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!
