Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, which seems crazy right? Today I’m partnering with Glade to share this no sew conversation heart napkin DIY to set the tone for a romantic Valentines Day dinner or afternoon heart-shaped treats for the kids. Either way, these napkins are super easy to make and fun to create your own cute phrases for the conversation hearts. You could even make them larger and make personalized placemats as well.
What is it about candles and sweet scents that are so romantic and relaxing? I realized this past holiday that we didn’t have one sweet smelling candle around the house so I’ve tried to make an effort of adding more touches of them here and there. I was happy when Glade sent us this lovely blooming peony and cherry candle to style our Valentines Day table. It sets such a nice tone and smells amazing.
Here’s what you’ll need to get started on the DIY stamped napkins…
Supplies: fabric cut into squares, craft foam, cardboard pieces cut into squares, alphabet stickers, red and pink fabric paint, foam brushes, scissors, x-acto knife, red duct tape
Step 1: Cut a heart for each color you want to make out of craft foam
Step 2: Cut the red duct tape in half and wrap around edges of napkins squares
Step 3: Place your fun + flirty conversation heart phrases on each of the napkins
Step 4: Stick the craft foam onto the cardboard (one side should peel off like a sticker) and then dab with a generous amount of paint
Step 5: Press firmly in the middle of the napkin
Step 6: Let dry and then peel off stickers to reveal your conversation heart messages

Hey!!!
Just starting to get around to printing a photo just like your oversized photo, and our fedex/kinkos is SUPER expensive for a poster that would be that big..like 81$ can you think of any other type of place that would do one similar? checked staples and they don’t do a simple paper poster like the one you posted! i’m in OC, Ca, not sure where you live..
What a cute idea for valentines day and so simple to make. I dont know where you get these creative ideas but either way I love them and cant wait to see even more 🙂
