Valentine’s Day crafts for kids: Conversation heart jewelry.

Once again, I’d love to share with all of you what I made for Celebrations this month. While the conversation hearts make these at least sweets-related, the hot glue gun is not an oft-used tool for this cookie and marshmallow decorator.

It’s been years since I pulled that out of hiding.

So I made some Valentine’s Day crafts for kids. Here, I’ll show you how to make conversation heart jewelry, specifically barrettes and rings.

I’m afraid these aren’t wear-forever kind of trinkets, or else you’ll spend your life chased by bees, but if you want to make these a little more permanent, I’d use a stronger glue than the glue gun.

Step 1: Paint your jewelry.

This is optional, but since the candy is an irregular shape, some of the jewelry shows through the cracks and crevices, so I painted the surface pink. Let the jewelry dry completely.
