6. Conversation Heart Frame

If you’re like me, it’s only the middle of January and I already have 2 boxes of conversation hearts in my pantry. Instead of eating them, use them as part of a fun Valentine craft! Simply glue to a dollar store wooden or foam frame, and add an adorable picture for a great gift and craft, rolled into one.
