I've been wanting to make these ladybugs for days.
They are made out of egg cartons, a black pom pom, and google eyes. My 3 year had fun helping me paint them. I might add a clip to the bottom of them so that they can clip onto different surfaces, or I might just find a way to stick them to the wall. It would be really cute to see them crawling around the wall.
This Valentine's heart garland was made out of 5 toilet paper tubes and yarn.
I painted the outside of the tubes red and the inside pink. After the paint dried, I cut the tube into strips. Then I shaped the loops into hearts. Next I punched a hole on either side of the heart and strung it on some pink yarn. The yarn has a loop at each end for hanging.
Now I have some really cute garland hanging in my house for Valentine's Day.
The ladybugs are ultra-adorable.
