This Valentine's Day, bewitch the object of your affection with a bejeweled charm.

Materials

• 20-gauge wire (available at bead stores)
• Scissors

• Pliers
• Beads

Instructions

1. Snip a length of wire (a parent's job) and bend it into a V shape.

2. String on the beads (tape the wire's cut ends first to protect smaller children).

3. Finish by bending the beaded wire into a heart, then twisting the ends together with the pliers.
   

Variations:

Large hearts can hang in a locker; small versions look great strung onto a necklace, pinned to a jacket pocket, or worn, as best friends are wont to do, right on their sleeves.
