Fox Valentine Box

The Room Mom for Vaughn's class is a sweet southern lady and when she asked me if I minded doing some "heads/tails" for the class party, I thought that was southern slang for odds and ends.

I was wrong.

She actually meant heads and tails. And she's just too sweet to say no to. So I obliged, even though I knew it would be a ton of work. She sent a pin to me of an idea, I recreated it, and figured I'd share it.

I started with a heart shape for the head, then added ears, a medium size for the face, and a small heart for the nose. I made one for each student, plus a few extra, and pre-glued them together. (There's not enough time in the party for the kids to do this.)

I also cut the tails and glued on white fur on the end.

25 was a lot. A lot, a lot.

The kids will add eyes, other decorations, and a heart with their name on it. (Depending on what type of box they sent in will determine where their name-heart will go.)

Here's a quick pattern for the pieces. Also, I picked up the red paper at an office supply store for 4 cents a sheet, which I thought was a pretty good deal.
