How to Make Easy Valentines for Your Students

It is almost Valentine's Day.  Time to share the LOVE.  I made some really cute Valentine's for my class.
Here are some of the supplies you may need depending on how you want to decorate the candy bags.
1" x 8" cellophane bags
M&Ms
matching red & pink ink
ribbon
Valentine's Stamp of choice
white cardstock
scissors

  • My special assistant helped with the stamping.  
                 He also loves to use my Cricut Machine!


  • Fill cellophane bags with M&Ms.  
     IF you manage not to eat but 6 M&Ms, you can make 17 from one large bag of M&Ms.

  • Cut hearts out with scissors, unless you are lucky enough to have the matching heart punch!  I did not use the colored cardstock in the first photo.  It would have been double cutting if I had matted the hearts below.

  • Attach hearts to the bags using thin ribbon of your choice.  I preferred white to match all  the colors.


The finished product!
