Valentines Day Craft Tissue Paper Bouquet

Tissue paper
Scissors
Crayons
Pipe cleaners

Time needed: Under 1 Hour
1. Cut eight 3 1/2-inch squares out of the tissue paper.

2. Using the side of a crayon, color along two opposite edges of each square.

3. Place one of the squares on a flat surface with the uncolored edges at the top and bottom. Starting at the top, fold the square as you would a paper fan. The pleats should be about a half inch wide. Fold the remaining squares using the same method.

4. For a stem, bend a pipe cleaner 1 1/2 inches from an end to form a hook. Stack the pleated squares (without unfolding them). Place the stack inside the hook and twist the hook end around the stem. Then, to open up the flower to full bloom, twist the petals a half turn near the stem.

Valentines Day Craft Dog Collar Tag

Card stock or thin cardboard
Scissors
Hole punch
Markers
Clear Con-Tact paper
Small metal ring (available at craft stores)

Time needed: Under 1 Hour
1. Cut a heart shape out of stiff paper or thin cardboard, then punch a hole in the top.

2. Decorate the heart with a Valentine's Day message, like "My Hero" or "Poodle Power." Then seal the shape on both sides with clear Con-Tact paper.

3. Clip the heart onto your dog's collar with a small metal ring (an old key ring works equally well).
