“I’m Nuts About You” Walnut Valentine

If our four other valentines this week didn’t inspire you, here is another fun little valentine to make and fill with treats for little ones or a special gift for your sweetie. Head to the grocery store and pick up a bag of walnuts and you’re basically halfway done with this project already!
"I'm Nuts About You" Walnut Valentine @themerrythought How to make it: Use a saw or knife (carefully) to cut along the sides of the walnut until it cracks in half. Pull out the walnuts and then use sandpaper to smooth out the inside of the shell. You can paint the inside or leave it natural. Fill it with some goodies and tie it up!
