Make these Darling Clay Heart Tags or Magnets for Valentine's Day!

We wanted to do something simple and sweet this year for my daughter to give to her classmates for Valentine's Day. These clay hearts can be used two ways...as tags or as magnets! The kids had so much fun playing with the modeling clay and made all sorts of other shapes too. Unused clay can be stored in the fridge and after a quick warm-up in the microwave it is ready to be used again for more fun! #ValentinesDay
