Our Experience With This Homemade Valentine Envelope Craft

Every year my kids have Valentine’s day parties at school where they put cards and treats in homemade little boxes they make. And I was trying to think of a cool way to do it this year while looking through the store and saw these doilies. I thought it would be a cute way to hand out treats or even small cards.

My kids had fun making them and it went a lot faster with multiple hands working to make them and stuff them and add stickers. We kind of had our own assembly line going. Either way, I hope your family has as much fun making these as mine did.
