Instructions

  • Cut a 2" x 4" into three square pieces - 2", 3", and 4". You can also ask for scraps at a lumber yard and have them cut it for you.
  • Trace around your wood pieces onto a piece of scrapbook paper, using a pencil.
  • Cut the paper out using scissors.
  • Add Mod Podge to the blocks and smooth the paper down on top. Layer the paper in areas and let dry. Add a top coat and let dry.
  • Sand the edges of the blocks/paper with the sandpaper to distress.
  • Drill two holes in the block at each end. Leave enough room so the blocks can stack. Glue the blocks on top of each other with the wood glue and let dry.
  • Add a vinyl saying; smooth down.
  • Add the wire to your Valentine's Day decor. Twist the wire and insert into the holes.
  • Create love notes and add them to the wire holders to finish.
