Ever look at kids’ valentine box ideas and wonder why they get to have all the fun? SAME. So we rounded up some supplies, called in some Hallmark artists, and turned them loose to make mailboxes for sweet little Valentine’s Day cards.
Try a dinosaur, camera, koala, rainbow or roller skate with our free downloadable instructions and templates, or gather up the supplies and go your own way.
