Valentine’s Craft Idea Made from Wooden Spoons

GoodwillArrow-Main

 

After doing some wikapedia-ing to find out why arrows are used for Valentine’s Day we set out to make our own out of thrifted wooden spoons.

 

Spoons

 

Here’s how we did it:

1 – Bought 2 wooden spoons at Goodwill Twinsburg for a mere 16 cents each!

2 – Pulled out some craft supplies like felt, feathers, yarn and glitter.

 

Materials

 

3 – Glued 3-6 feathers to the top side of the spoon.

 

Gluing

 

4 – Cut out two felt triangles to use as the arrow tip.

5 – Wrapped multiple pieces of colored yarn around the handle and secured in place with glue.

6 – Glued the 2 triangle felt pieces together, leaving a small opening to slide about an inch of the handle inside. Secured with more glue.

7 – Decorated with gold glitter!

If you don’t have these craft supplies on hand, here are a few alternatives:

Felt // Construction Paper // Cardboard

Yarn // Paint // Ribbon // Washi Tape

Feathers // Felt // Tissue Paper
