Good morning Paper Girls!
This is Becci and I am kicking off the month of LOVE with a Valentine's class party gift. I am a fan of non-candy gifts for my girl's classes, which takes a little more planning ahead but you can also give a fun gift that will likely last longer.

One tip for you on any 3D type of craft, like these or boxes or bags that you craft yourself - use HOT GLUE. Seriously, it keeps it together quicker and better and you won't have anything popping off.
Here is my completed project. I ended up making 40 of these straws to split between the girl's two classes:
The PGCB Design Team has even more lovelies to share with you today:
