These beautiful pieces would make for gorgeous wall décor for a Valentine’s Day pizza party!
Craft Supplies:
- Large Craft Foam Hearts
- Yellow Tissue Paper
- Red Craft Paint
- Foam Paint Brush
- Small Heart Stickers
Directions:
- You will want ONE craft foam heart shape per pizza. First have children paint their red “tomato sauce” in the center of their craft foam heart. Remind them to leave some “crust” exposed. Repeat for each craft you want to make.
- Next {working faster} have children tear small pieces of yellow “cheese” tissue paper and place it on top of the wet red paint so it sticks and dries in place. Have them put as much “cheese” as they like on top. If desired, you can get some school glue out for this step.
- To finish off your Craft Foam Heart Pizza, have children add “pepperoni” red heart stickers on top of the “cheese covered” craft foam piece. Then finish off with other embellishments they see fit {maybe some other favorite pizza toppings like green “bell pepper” rhinestones or “black olive” glitter}
- Once completely done, set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
- Don’t forget to share pictures of your heart valentine pizza with us on your social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts

Prepare your creative haven by laying down a protective cover before the crafting magic begins!
Directions:

- Add a few squiggles of school glue over the painted heart.
- Tear pieces of yellow tissue paper and press them onto the glue to create the look of melted cheese.
- Complete your Craft Foam Heart Pizza by adding red heart stickers as "pepperoni" on top of the cheesy design.
- For an extra touch, consider gluing your finished piece to another sheet of paper and writing a fun, pun-filled phrase around your finished pizza creation.
- Once everything is in place, set your masterpiece aside to dry completely before proudly displaying it for all to see!
