Are you looking for some last-minute gift ideas for Valentine's Day?  Look no further.  Here's an easy and fun Valentine's Mailbox Treat Holder idea!   You can find these mailboxes at a craft store, or go to your local Target at the Dollar spot section.  I have altered my mailbox, using the beautiful
Color Washed 12 x 12 Paper Pad
by Paper House Productions.  You guys are all going to love this paper pad.  The pad comes with a sticker sheet that contains alphabet stickers, and other ephemeras. I love making 3D projects for Valentine's Day, especially making treat holders for my family and friends.  Valentine's Day is always a special day at my house.  When my kids were a lot younger, I would surprise them by decorating the table with hearts, candles, confetti, and flowers!  I would also leave the little treat bags on top of their plates so that before they eat breakfast and go to school, they already have their treats with them.  It made their day.  It doesn't matter how big or small the presents were but they were always happy to get a few treats to celebrate the day.  We also made treats for their friends! Here are the photos of my finished project:

I have a process video for you today to show you how I altered this inexpensive mailbox that I found from Target.  It is super fast and easy, and it doesn't require decoupaging.  I hope you like it.  The supplies I used are listed and linked below.  Have a wonderful day! https://youtu.be/AZWe3xSZK7o SUPPLIES:
