Valentine Mailboxes

Aren't these cute?  They're in the $1.00 bin at Target.  LOVE Target!  I bought seven - enough for each of us and Paige and I got to work decorating.

We used Mod Podge and some fun paper to cover the sides and ends.  We added each person's name with stickers before we started brushing on the Mod Podge.
We notched a rectangle to slide around the flag and put a fun sticker on each person's flag. 


And now the fun part...we get to put mail or treats in each other's mailboxes.  You know you have mail if the flag is up.  I still need to work on the Mom and Dad mailboxes, but the kids have had fun finding their mail and treats.  Today Brett and Paige found TicTacs, Hart and Tate found heart suckers and my dentally-challenged (is that a word?) Hope found red and white polka dotted socks in the mailboxes.
