Valentine’s Day Crafts | Make Paper Cones

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner but it’s not too late to get crafting projects done for the holiday.   Valentine’s Day paper cones are a quick craft to make and can be made for decoration or filled with sweets for gift giving.

Materials Needed for Valentine’s Day Cones:

• Scrapbook paper in pink, red and white patterns
• Paper ephemera such as paper lace hearts, Valentines Day stickers, and cut outs of paper hearts
• Tape
• Hole Punch
• Glue
• Glitter
• Ribbon, string or yarn
• Wax paper

Directions to Make Valentine’s Day Cones:

• Trace a circle onto the scrapbook paper and cut the circle out.  I traced a cookie tin, but you can also use a compass to create a perfect circle.  Circles should be about 12″ across.  The smaller the circle, the smaller the cones will be.
• Draw an intersection through the center of the circle to create 4 equal parts and cut them out.  Each section will make one cone.
  

Hang them for decoration or give them away to loved ones.  Enjoy a festive Valentine’s day!
