Today I want to share three easy diy Valentine Day decor projects that you can make in no time.

Easy Diy Valentine Day Decor

Diy Valentine Day Decor

I started off with three different lengths from a 2″ x 4″ that I had leftover from another project that had already been aged with my aging solution.

Diy Valentine Day Decor

One was 9″, another 8″, and the smaller one was 4″.

Dry brush the front and sides with red acrylic paint leaving some of the aged wood showing through. (This picture doesn’t show sides painted because I went back and did sides later because I didn’t like how it looked not painted).

Diy Valentine Day Decor

You can either draw your hearts on freehand,

or cut one out of paper then trace around it like I chose to do.

If you had a stencil that would work too!

Paint your hearts with white acrylic paint.

Using stencils (affiliate) or freehand add your lettering.

Once your lettering is dry they are good to go, or even you can lightly sand your blocks to give them more rustic charm.

That’s it for some easy diy Valentine Day decor?
