Paper Heart Wreath

Since Valentine's is nearing we decided to do some more Valentine's activities. This idea came from www.kaboose.com. I thought that this would go great with the heart curtain that we made on Monday to help decorate the house for daddy.
Items you need:
-9" dinner plate or paper plate
-Recycled cereal box or other thin cardboard
-Pencil
-Scissors
-Construction paper
-Markers, crayons or paint pens
-Glue sticks

Instructions:
1. Trace around the 9" plate onto the cardboard. Use your pen or pencil to draw another circle inside that one, about an inch away from the outside circle. Cut out the circle and the center of the circle to create a cardboard wreath base.
2. Fold a piece of scrap paper in half. Cut out a heart shape.
3. Fold the short end of a piece of construction paper up about 3 inches. Place the folded heart around the folded paper and trace the half heart shape into the paper. You should be able to fit three hearts on the paper. Repeat this step for each colored piece of paper; you will have a total of 12 hearts.
4. Cut out all the hearts and flatten out the creases so that the hearts lay flat. Using markers, crayons, or paint pens, write conversation candy phrases on the hearts such as "LOVE", "HUBBA HUBBA", "SWEET", "LOVE", "BE MINE", "KISS" and "PAL".
5. Arrange your hearts on top of the cardboard wreath shape without gluing them down. Once you have them where you want them, use the glue stick to attach each one.
