CRAFTS MATERIALS NEEDED:
CRAFT PROJECT INSTRUCTIONS:

(1) Find some large coffee cans...you will need them for this project.

(2) Now find yourself some wrapping paper that is suitable to represent love and Valentine's Day. Put the coffee can on the wrapping paper to find out the right height to start cutting out the paper for.

(3) Now put glue all over the outside of the coffee can. Start wrapping the paper along the outside of the can. Cut the paper at the right spot and finish gluing the paper to the can.

(4) Take the coffee can cap and trace it on the wrapping paper. Cut a 1/2 inch out side the traced circle to give enough room to glue around the edges. Put glue on the cap and then glue down the wrapping paper to the cap.

(5) Cut a large slit in the cap to leave enough room for your classmates to place their Valentine's Day Cards in.

(6) This is what the Valentine's Day Coffee Can Mailbox should look like when completed.

CHANGES TO ARTISTS HELPING CHILDREN - PLEASE READ
Artists Helping Children is No Longer Acting as a Nonprofit Due to the New Provisions of The Pension Protection Act of 2006 Passed on August 03, 2006. We Are No Longer Accepting Donations of Any Kind. We are Currently Keeping This Site Up As Is and Will Continue to Post Information on Any Updates to the Status of Artists Helping Children. The Site Still Has a Wealth of Information and Can Still Be Used as Such. We Are Obviously Deeply Distressed Over This Provision That Was Secretly Included In This New Law and We Were Taken by Complete Surprise. We Hope in the Future That We Will Be Able to Change the Status of Our Organization so That We Can Once Again Resume Our Help to Children. Thank You Very Much to Everyone Who Has Worked With Us So Hard Up Until Now. Please Continue to Use This Site for Free Coloring Pages / Printouts, Arts and Crafts Project Ideas, and as a Resource for Childrens Art Articles, etc. Don't worry, All donations of items that were sent to us will still be sent to hospitals and shelters, etc. All recent checks sent to us will be mailed back to you. Thanks.
