It’s not too early to start thinking about Valentine’s Day – it’ll be here before you know it!  This great little 3D string art by Mona at Craft Klatch uses a candy mold as a form for making a dimensional heart, but if you don’t have a candy mold, this is yet another project you can complete using the silicone ice cube trays they sell for each holiday at Dollar Tree.  (There are lots of ways you can use those ice cube trays, and we just adore them!)   Use the finished hearts as decorative ornaments, or work them into jewelry or other projects!  [how to make a string heart Valentine ornament]
