I found this Valentine's craft that I actually had all the supplies for....just had to dig through the trash to find that paper towel roll I'd thrown away. It is a perfect independent craft for 7 and up, but my 5 year old did it with a little help stringing.
I cut up two paper towel cardboard rolls (that made plenty) and we just used spray paint, much faster and easier.

Shaped them into hearts.

Poked them top and bottom with a tack.

Chose from my random collection of beads.

We used fishing line and it was sturdy enough that we didn't have to use a needle. I had them loop back through the bottom of the bead to hold it in place and help keep the heart shape.

Not quite as fancy as theirs, but still very festive.
