Hi friends! I have a fun Valentine’s Day Mantel to share with you today, created and updated with some fabulous new Martha Stewart Craft supplies! I’m part of a 12 month program this year where I get to show and share with you some amazing new Martha Stewart Crafts items, and starting out this month, it’s already so much fun! So let me show you what I used and how you can incorporate these wonderful products in your home!
First up is this Glitter Dipped Heart. I purchased this heart box from the Target Dollar Spot last year, and this year I just wanted to add a little bling. Everything could use a little glitter, don’t you think?
What you’ll need:
- Paper heart box
- Martha Stewart Crafts Valentine Mini Glitter Set
- Chalk
- Straight edge
And the steps:
- Draw a chalk line where you want the glitter to start with a straight edge.
- Go over the line with the glue pen and fill in the area below.
- Spread the glue around the bottom of the heart until area is covered.
- Add glitter, shake and let dry.
Next up is our Framed Heart Arrow.
What you’ll need:
- Frame
- Paper from Martha Stewart Crafts Valentine Paper Pad
- Martha Stewart Crafts Copper Gilding
- “Coffee stirrer-sized” craft stick
- Tacky glue
And the steps:
- Paint the craft stick copper with the Martha Stewart Copper Guilding.
- Cut out a heart for the tip of the arrow and “feathers” for the end out of the Martha Stewart Valentines paper.
- Glue the heart and the feathers to the craft stick.
- Frame arrow on Martha Stewart Valentines paper.
And last, but not least, our Drop Heart Frame. I think this is my favorite!
What you’ll need:
- Open frame
- Paper from Martha Stewart Crafts Valentine Paper Pad
- Martha Stewart Crafts Glitter Eyelash
- Tacky glue
- Push pins
And the steps:
- Cut hearts out of the Martha Stewart Valentines paper.
- Cut similar lengths of the Martha Stewart Crafts Glitter Eyelash.
- Glue the glitter eyelash between two paper hearts.
- Push the push pins into the back of the open frame.
- Tie the glitter eyelash to the push pins so that the hearts hang down inside the frame.
What do you think? I think it’s simple, but oh so fun! And I have to tell you that the Martha Stewart Crafts supplies were a blast to work with! I’m sure that’s no surprise there! I saw on Instagram one of the #12MonthsofMartha bloggers say that “Glitter Eyelash is the new black” and I couldn’t agree more! Such a fun product to work with. So get to Michaels Arts and Crafts, Jo-Anns Fabrics & Crafts or check out Amazon today to order your very own supply!
