Sparkly heart-shaped wands for Miss G’s little friends. Then, with a different, slightly narrower ribbon, we tied a bow right above the previous ribbon knot…Īnd finished off all of the ribbon ends with v snips.Īnd there you have it. Then we stacked them up and tied them onto the dowel at the base of the heart, giving them a little tug to coax them into falling downwards nicely. Next up – the ribbon! We chose 3 colours, looped them in half, and cut them slightly shorter than the length of our exposed dowel. With the heart in a good position, Grae pressed everything together firmly. Then Grae peeled the backing off of another heart, and we carefully placed it on top of the dowel, making sure to line up the hearts as closely as we could. With one heart shaped peeled, we placed the sticky side up on our work surface and placed the unfinished end of our dowel in the centre of the heart, up maybe an inch or inch and a half from the bottom. This right here was Grae’s favourite part of the whole project… Peeling the backings off of the hearts! Now to actually assemble a wand, you need two foam hearts, a wooden dowel, and a cute little helper. With some strategic placement, we were able to fit 4 hearts onto each of our foam sheets, but of course it depends on the size of your tracer and the size of your foam sheets. Gracen was happy to do the first few, and let me do the others when it came to this job.

Next, using our newly-made tracer, we traced hearts onto the backs of our foam sheets. We started by drawing a heart shape onto a piece of cardboard and cutting it out to use as a tracer. Then, because the tips were not painted where the clothespins were, I was able to stick the dowels into chunks of play dough to dry upright.Ī couple of days later, when our paint was good and dry (it actually only takes about an hour), we came back to our project. When she declared a dowel done, I went over the stick with a couple of quick strokes in order to smooth out the globs. Miss G does not always enjoy having her hands covered in paint, so we attached clothespins to the ends of the dowels so she could rotate them as she painted without painting her fingers. The best part is that we picked up all of these things at our local dollar store, so not only were they inexpensive, but we only had to make one stop – always nice with a toddler in tow.įirst off, we started the project by painting our wooden dowels. Here are the materials we used for the project… Wooden dowels, adhesive glitter foam sheets, acrylic paint, a paint brush, and some ribbon. These little wands are beautiful and easy to make, and although some may think they’re a little ‘girly’, we believe that hearts and magic are for everyone.


And because both take a little bit of prep work, we started early… More time left over to figure out what we’ll bring for the 30+ kiddos in her Strong Start class, right? When I asked her what she’d like to give her friends, she responded with Valentine’s slime (thanks I’m sure to our Halloween version for her ballet class friends) and heart wands (thanks to a Kiwi Crate package we received from our most recent PBK story time). And since we don’t do the whole candy thing just yet, it means getting a little bit more creative with the ‘treats’ she hands out. In addition to our annual Valentine’s Day tea, Gracen and I have a couple of other Valentine’s parties and classes to attend this year.
