Card Holder (Heavy Duty Paper Plate)

Here is an easy craft for kids to make. It is a fun way to store class Valentines.

Supplies:

2 Paper Plates, heavy duty
Stapler
Construction Paper (or decorative pens and stickers)
Glue
Pipe Cleaner or String

Directions:

1. Cut the top half off one of the paper plates.

2. Turn the cut paper plate upside down, and staple (or glue)  it to another plate to form a pocket.

3. Punch holes in the top and form a handle with pipe cleaner or string.

4. Cut hearts out of construction paper and glue them onto the plate (or decorate with decorative pens and stickers).

Here is another cute version from Family Education. Instead of using staples, a ribbon is threaded around the edges:
