Hi friends,

Still looking for the perfect classroom valentine to send into your kiddos school? I’ve got you!

When brainstorming Valentine ideas this year my daughter initially thought she wanted to make everyone cute valentine themed bracelets. Later, she ultimately decided that idea was over done!

We eventually landed on keychains as a similar but still more unique and less overdone idea!

These keychain valentines are a cute, practical and candy-free little keepsake that won’t just be thrown in the garbage after the party.

Classmates can clip these personalized keychains to their backpacks, lunchboxes or even pencils cases – Plus, they’re super easy to put together with my free printable tags!

Reasons why keychains are the perfect valentine

  • Cute & Functional – These beaded keychains are personalized which means they definitely won’t just get thrown away!
  • Candy free – Many schools have strict policies on sweets so a candy/food-free option is great!
  • Made easy with love – Beading is a craft kiddos enjoy, plus with our free printable, this whole Valentine comes together super quickly!

Here’s what you’ll need:

These are key must-have items for this class valentine for school.

The linked beads come with string. We went ahead and used the string it came with and it actually held up really well, we were pretty impressed.

My daughter was super picky when picking out these beads.. First, she wanted to go with clay beads since those are very trendy right now. But after she thought about how long it would take with those small beads, she opted for these.

These glass beads are cute and less “kiddy” than normal plastic beads. Or so claims my nine year old daughter lol
