Valentine’s craft ideas don’t have to be complex or over-thought.

Just pop into your local store and pick up some of the great craft supplies on offer to get started.

Arts and crafts supplies are on sale across Perth but you won’t find better value than in your local store.

Here are a few ideas to help you get creative and crafty this Valentine’s Day.

1. Pom pom love hearts – You will need School glue $5, some Acrylic multi-coloured pom poms $3 and plain card to create these beauties. They can be whatever size you wish. Just cut out a heart shape and coat one side with glue. Arrange the pom poms, pink, red and white work best – all over, in whatever pattern takes your fancy. This can be mounted in an open frame or even used as a thoughtful card.
2. Jars of delight – We love these Craft Feathers  $3 and Mini glass jars with cork lids $2. Get some thin craft wire to wrap around the neck of each mini glass jar. Fill them with the delicate feathers and some heart shaped confetti to make an eye catching decoration for your table or fire mantle piece.
3. Card garland – These Mini wooden pegs $3 and Eva Craft Sheets $3 combine to make a simple yet beautiful creation. Cut heart shapes out from the coloured card and write some love notes on each one. Get some coloured craft string and attach them on in a row with the pegs. You can hang these all over your home.
4. Sweet treats – Chocolates are one of the most popular Valentine’s Day gifts for many, but how about making your own sweet treats. Use dark chocolate and heavy cream to make handmade truffles and put them into some of these pretty Organza bags $3. Your loved one is sure to be impressed.
