Galentine's DIY Project

This DIY Valentine project is all about handmade charm, playful texture, and experimenting with color 💕

Using our simple wood frame, and sponge cutouts, the project layers bold Valentine symbols—LOVE letters, hearts, Xs and Os—into festive décor that feels both crafty and elevated. The sponged shapes add a soft, textured look, while the mix of pinks, reds, and purples keeps everything fun and romantic without being too polished.

One part of the process focuses on paint exploration, testing different red and blush combinations to find the perfect Valentine palette—from deep, dramatic reds to soft, muted pinks. Those colors come together in framed “XO” artwork, finished with rustic wood frames and bead detailing that gives it a cozy, handmade feel.

Altogether, this is an approachable, creative Valentine DIY that turns basic supplies into statement décor—perfect for gifting, decorating a shelf or mantel, or adding a little love to your space for the season ❤️
