Don’t you just love a cute charm with a simple statement. My daughter and I made these for each other for Valentine’s Day. She wore hers to school and lots of other little girls wanted one too. So we spent another afternoon making more of these necklace charms.

We made this clay magnet as a Valentine gift for my daughter’s classroom helper. It was fun to make and to paint. After it was finished we wrapped it in a cello bag and added a matching birdcage gift tag made with the rubber stamp.
