Sweethearts Candy Box Frame

Here is a simple and sweet craft for your little ones just in time for Valentine’s Day.

My son made me one of these last year and it has a permanent spot on the fridge. I cherish it and think it such a creative gift.

Materials:

• Individual Sweetheart conversation heart boxes with clear, cellophane heart cut-out on front; enough for each child. These are available on Amazon.
• small photo of each child,
• strip of self adhesive magnets
• tape

Simple Steps for Making a Sweethearts Candy Box Frame:

• Start with an empty box of conversation hearts (w/ the clear heart on the front)
• Take individual pictures of each child or have a couple handy. Cut the child’s picture out and insert it into the box so that it will show through the heart shape window in the front.
• Tape the picture to the inside of the box to secure it.
• Add a strip of self-adhesive magnet to the back of the box and this makes an adorable refrigerator magnet and great keepsake.
• Glue some of the candy hearts on the box to decorate if desired.
• You may want to tape the top of the box shut to protect and secure the picture.
