Today I'm sharing a simple and fun Valentines project using Glue Dots® that involves Target, Basic Grey, twine, glitter and chocolate! Sounds like a great combo, right?
Who wouldn't want a mailbox full of chocolates? I know I would and I'd hide it from the kids too. Come on, you know you keep a secret chocolate stash.
These chocolate sentiments kisses are an easy and quick gift to give out for any holiday.
Here's how I made mine. Cut out .75 inch circle, stamp or write love sentiments on each one and then use Ultra Thin Glue Dots® to adhere the circles to the bottom of the kiss. Easy Peasy!
I easily embellished this Target dollar bin mailbox by using Glue Dots® too.
I wrapped a 2 inch strip of Basic Grey True Love collection around the mailbox and used Glue Lines® to adhere it on the tin. I then wrapped the mailbox with some red and white twine, cut out two pennant flags to adhere over the mailbox flag by using Ultra Thin Glue Dots® and then used some more Ultra Thin Glue Dots® to adhere glittered hearts on the sides.
Here's how to make glittered hearts using XXL Glue Dots ®.
