Thoughts of Love!
February has been associated with love and fertility as far back as
ancient times. Ancient Athens celebrated the period between mid-January
and mid-February as the month of Gamelion. They dedicated
the festival month to the sacred marriage of Zeus and Hera. In Greek
mythology Zeus was the supreme ruler of the ancient Greek Gods while Hera
was the Goddess of women, marriage and childbirth.

Valentine's Day Craft - Oracle of Love |
|||||||
|
What You'll Need:
1-inch diameter Styrofoam ball |
Oracle of Love Get an answer to "Will you be my valentine?" and any other yes-or-no question with this homemade version of the classic Magic 8 Ball. Too cute! 1. Gently form the Styrofoam ball into a cube by pressing it against a table with your thumb. 2. Cut 6 hearts from the craft foam and write an answer with permanent marker on each one, such as "Yes," "No," or "You bet." Attach these hearts to the cube with hot glue. 3. Place the answer cube in the jar and fill the jar with water right to the top. Close the lid tightly and test for leaks. If your jar isn't watertight, wrap Teflon tape around the jar's threads before closing the lid. 4. Cover the jar with Model Magic clay, leaving the bottom of the jar clear. 5. Roll small pieces of Model Magic into snakes, and use them to decorate the outside of your oracle with hearts. To use your oracle, keep it lid-side up as you ask your question, then turn it over to learn the answer.
