Valentines Day Craft for Bulletin Boards

Looking for a unique Valentine’s Day bulletin board idea? Use our Valentine’s Day art project that studies the some of the elements of art: line and color. This craft is inspired by the Cubism movement. Our class looked at works by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque for inspiration. Create this simple Valentine’s Day craft by following the instructions below. This Valentine’s Day project also make an easy Valentine’s Day gift for parents!

Valentine’s Day Art Project

1. Print out my heart shape.

2. Draw two horizontal lines, two vertical lines, and two diagonal lines. Have the kids rotate their papers to make this easier for them.  For younger kids, make sure to remind them to draw from the top of the page to the bottom of the page. Also show them how to place their fingers on the ruler to keep it steady.

3. Have students place warm colors inside of the heart. Remind them not to place two of the same colors next to each other. Only have warm colors available during these instructions. This helps them to avoid placing colors in the wrong areas.

4. Have students place cool colors on the outside of the heart. Remind them not to place two of the same colors next to each other. Again only have cool colors available during these instructions.

Meet the Teachers

Meet the Teachers

Back when we were both teaching, we dreamed of a website that would make lesson planning easier. We both remember late nights scouring search engine for unit ideas. After searching 1000s of blogs and sites, nothing was exactly meeting our vision: creative resources for the overworked teacher or homeschooler! So…this was born.
