valentines love bug craft

Lovebugs!

We made these cute little love bugs for Valentine's Day last year. They're really easy to put together in a few minutes with just a couple of basic craft materials. You start with a plain cardboard tube, which you need to either paint or to save on drying time we just covered with some coloured tissue paper. Then we cut out wings from some lovely pink glittery cardboard and stick to the back of the bodies. The girls decorated their bugs with some heart stickers or you could draw your own decorations with a marker pen. Then just finish off with some goggly eyes and twisted pip cleaners for antenna.
