Candy Holder<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n On Valentine’s Day children typically get Valentine’s cards and candy from family, friends, classmates and teachers. For a special touch, and to enhance your child’s holiday experience even more, help them create a unique card holder or “mailbox” for these cards and candies. 1 Plastic ice cream bucket with lid First, cut a hole in the lid large enough for candies and cards to fit through it. <\/p>\n Water down the glue a little so that it is the consistency of paint as you’re going to use this glue to attach the construction paper to the exterior of the ice cream bucket. Paint the glue over the bucket then attach strips of paper to the outside. Let it dry completely, and then apply one more layer. Do the outside of the bucket and the lid, but don’t cover the hole. <\/p>\n To finish and personalize your card holder, apply buttons, lace, gems, stickers or any other decorative pieces you like. Put your name on it somewhere so that everyone knows whose treats to put in it. You can use beads or buttons to spell it out, or just write it using a marker. <\/p>\n Cards<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n What better Valentine’s Day craft than Valentine’s Day cards?
