Heart Covered Tree Craft Idea
Inspired by Valentine’s Day and the Bubble Wrap Print Cherry Blossom Tree craft I shared on the blog a few months back – today I present to YOU our Paper Love Tree Kid Craft w/free printable idea! This time you only need a few paper scraps and a glue stick!
Not only is this paper heart tree craft idea for kids super simple, really inexpensive {we are talking a few cents from start to finish} it’s also the perfect excuse to celebrate the upcoming “lovestruck” Valentine’s Day holiday!

So without ado – here is how YOU can take the free tree branch printable in this post and transform it into a beautiful paper heart covered tree! Just grab the free download below, some Valentine’s themed paper and create this Heart Covered Love Tree with your child today!
