TWO Last-Minute Quick and Easy Dollar Store Valentine's Day Crafts

This post may contain affiliate links. See our Privacy Policy and Affiliate Information page.

Valentine's Day is TOMORROW! Here are TWO fun, easy, and inexpensive last-minute crafts made from stuff I found at the dollar store. 

Here is the first craft. It is made from heart-shaped doiliesValentine-Themed Foam Stickers, and Heart-Shaped Foam Stickers. You will also need glue sticks. I found all of these at the dollar store, but I included Amazon links if you don't have a dollar store around you. 

Start with the largest size doily. Put it down on the table in front of you right side up. Put the middle size doily face-down and using the glue stick, cover the back of the middle-sized doily (you may want to put a scrap piece of paper underneath it because the glue gets through the little holes) with glue. 

Flip the middle-sized doily over and put on top of the larger doily, trying to center it. (My kids needed a little help getting it centered, but it certainly doesn't *HAVE* to be)

Now, put glue on the back of the smallest doily.

Flip it over and put the smallest doily on top of the other two. 

Then, decorate with the foam stickers as you desire. We put the conversation heart stickers around the outside and "stacked" three different sizes of foam stickers in the middle of the doilies. 

We are giving these out as Valentines to our friends and family from Froot Loop. I think they'll be a big hit! 

Then, Cocoa Puff and I made these cute hearts out of larger foam hearts and some glitter heart foam stickers

We started with just a large foam heart. 

He stuck one of the larger glitter hearts on it like this. 

Then he put a couple more on before running off to do something else. 

Eventually, he came back and put the rest of the stickers he wanted on it. 

My parents and the rest of our friends and family are going to LOVE these. 

What kind of Valentines are your kids giving out this year?

We live in a tiny isolated town where the only store we have is the dollar general that we only just got 3 years ago. There are so many great cheap craft supplies there especially during holidays
