ST. LOUIS — Be Mine Tags
Supplies:
1 small TWO MEN AND A TRUCK moving box
Scissors or box cutter
Ruler
Ribbon
Stickers or marker
Step 1: Cut the two all-white box flaps using scissors or a box cutter.
Step 2: Use your ruler to mark triangle shapes on the top left and right of each panel, cut them off.
Step 3: Place alphabet stickers or use a marker to say “Be” on one tag and “Mine” on the other.
Step 4: Carefully use your scissors to poke a hole in the top of your tags. Tie the ribbon in a bow at the top! TIP! We decided to keep the tags in place by hot gluing them to one another. However, this isn’t a must if you’d prefer they hang.

Twine Heart Garland
Supplies:
1 Small box
Scissors or box cutter
Jute and yarn
Hot glue gun
Step 1: Cut small heart shapes from your cardboard box.
Step 2: Use jute, twine, or yarn to wrap around your heart. We secured ours with a hot glue gun.
Step 3: In between the hearts, we created yarn pom-poms for variety. To make a pom-pom, use your palm to wrap the yarn in a circle. After you wrap (we recommend at least 30 times!), use a separate piece of yarn to tie a knot around the center, almost like a belt. You will then want to use your scissors to cut the loop ends on each side of the center tie. Fluff it up and you have a pom-pom! TIP! Watch our video tutorial to see how this is done.
Step 4. Thread the twine through your hearts and pom-poms and you’re garland is complete!
Pom-pom wreath
Supplies:
1 small box
Scissors or box cutter
Yarn
Hot glue gun
Step 1: Begin by drawing one large heart on the side of your box. Then, draw a slightly smaller one inside of that. Cut along each heart outline.
Step 2: Using the method above, create several pom-poms to cover your heart. We used 17 larger pom-poms to cover our wreath.
Step 3: Secure the poms-poms down using a hot glue gun.
Step 4: Use a piece of yarn at the top of your wreath to create a hook to hang it.
