When is Valentine’s Day?

Doing some research online I found lots of people need a reminder when is Valentine’s Day. If your a romantic at heart you want to remember Valentine’s day is every year on Feb 14th. You can choose to celebrate Valentine’s day on the weekend, but don’t forget to acknowledge your romantic side on the 14th.

Every Valentine’s Day find us catching up from Christmas costs saving for a winter runaway from winter vacation. The timing means our Valentine’s Day celebration is always all about thoughtful and affordable.

I created this free Valentines printable with both your budget and mine. This Happy Valentines Day banner printable just needs to be print and cut. No fancy papers or supplies needed. Its not only pretty its easy enough to make with kids, and I adore the super sweet print polka dot background. Its an easy last minute Valentine craft and decoration.

Free Valentines Printable Supplies

To make this Valentines banner you need a couple simple supplies, my mini clothes pin came from the dollar store.

Free printable Happy Valentine’s Banner

Scissors, twine and mini dollar store clothespins

If you don’t want to spend for the clothespins, you can use paper clips, or punch a small hole in each letter banner.

How to Make a Valentine’s Day Banner

Decide where you want the banner to hang, like a window, a mantel or over a bed.

The printable has some extra blank circles so you can seperate the wording and make one long Valentines banner. Measure for placement and then add another foot for little bows at the end.

For a double swag Valentine’s Day printable banner. Measure and then cut two pieces of twine. Cut the first piece of twine two feet longer than necessary and the second piece three feet longer for a deeper swag.

Print and cut all the Valentines Day printables.

Once you have the twine swagged the way you like, hang the Happy Valentines letters on the swags using tiny clothespins.

My Valentines banner is tied to the headboard of my granddaughters guest room but it would be pretty hanging on a window. 

I love the farmhouse feel of the miniature clothespins, and they make it very easy to adjust the width of the banner.  If you don’t have miniature clothes pins, you could easily hole punch the Valentine printable, use ribbon and tie little bows along the banner to add pretty interest. Either way this craft will take less than half an hour.  How last minute is that!

I know this Happy Valentine banner is very girlish, but I love pink and Valentines is a perfect excuse to use it.  I hope you love it as much as I do.
