My sweet valentine

If you love someone, put their name in a circle, instead of a heart, because hearts can break, but circles go on forever.

If music be the food of love, play on.
– Shakespeare

It takes more then lace and ribbons,
And lovely verses too,
To make a Valentine thats nice enough for you. It takes a world of special thoughts,
Tucked into every line,
And that’s exactly what you’ll find inside this Valentine.
– Unknown

At the touch of Love every one becomes a poet.
– Plato

Love may not make the world go round, but I must admit that it makes the ride worthwhile.
– Sean Connery

This nice little paper basket can be used to place little gifts for the little ones.

Woven Heart Basket.

You'll need two different colours of papers. Fold and cut so that each piece has 3 loops.

Starting with the bottom 1/3 loop of the green piece, weave it through the first red loop, insert the second red loop through this green piece and weave this green piece through the 3rd red loop again.

Do the opposite way for the middle loop of the green piece. First weave the right red loop through this green loop, then weave this middle green loop through the middle red loop and then weave the red loop through this green loop again.

If done correctly, your basket should be able to open this way.

Using a craft scissors, cut a red strip and weave a green strip through it as the handle of the basket.
