Sweet French Provincial Mailbox 

How charming is this?! This enchanting mailbox would feel right at home tucked into the corner of an entryway or cozy living room. 🥰  The Provincial Farmhouse  used the  Veranda Stamp  to add that scrumptious texture, and those intricate details from the  Conservatory Labels Lock & Key, and Primitive Mould are just darling.


Let’s not forget those dainty florals from the Rose Chintz Paint Inlay—what a dreamy embellishment! (Psst…while the Rose Chintz Paint Inlay is no longer in stock, there are plenty of other gorgeous florals to choose from!) 🌸


We even tracked down the project tutorial for anyone who wants to give it a go! 

Beginner-Friendly Valentine’s Day Trinkets 

What a charming Valentine’s heart by  Brooklawn Creations! They paired the  Ephemeral Type Stamp with a scrumptious bloom from the  Redoute Transfer, giving it that lovely vintage-sophisticated look. 


They used metal hearts for the base but you could also do something similar on cardboard if you want to use materials you can find at home.💕

Mixed Media Valentine’s Day Wall Decor 

This project is brimming with charm and endless possibilities for different compilations using your fave IOD Stamps and Moulds. Lynne with Ellen J Goods used the IOD Letterpress Stamp, impressing it into Air Dry Clay for that textured background, and added those delightful finishing touches using the Lock & Key Mould.

Valentine’s Day Romantic Keepsake Box 

We had to do a double-take when we saw this one from  Southern AerieJust look at those oh-so-dreamy details! The  Felicite Mould paired with Bibelots Mould, the darling Lattice Rose Paint Inlay, and those clever additions from the  Lock & Key Mould. Together, they create the kind of jewelry box you’d expect to find in the most lovely vintage setting.

Valentine’s Day Plaque with IOD Moulds and Transfers

"Could there be anything sweeter than a handmade token of love??" - Ellen J. Goods


We couldn’t agree more, Lynne—there’s nothing quite like the charm of a heartfelt, handmade gift! 😍 Just look at this dainty mixed-media piece—wouldn’t it make the most thoughtful handmade Valentine for someone special?


Lynne from Ellen J. Goods used the IOD Bibelots and Classic Elements Moulds to create that sweet frame. She embellished the frame with those vibrant red blooms from the Lover of Flowers Transfer. 🌹

French Hanging Jewelry Organizer 

Create a pretty French hanging jewelry organizer with IOD stamps and moulds—a perfect addition to your decor and a heartfelt gift for Valentine’s Day. (And let’s be real, it’s never too early to start planning for Mother’s Day, too!)


This project is so charming, we have a feeling you’ll want to make two—one to gift and one to keep for yourself. Because who says you can’t treat yourself while spreading the love? 💕

Personalized Flower Vase with IOD Moulds and Stamps

This darling flower vase by Hameleons is giving us all the French academia vibes we adore! The Conservatory Labels Mould is the perfect size for personalizing small decor projects like this one, especially when paired with the charming letters from our Apothecary Labels Stamp . It’s such a lovely way to add a thoughtful touch to your creations.

Cottage Core Valentine’s Day Throw Pillows

Aren’t these pillows by Down the Vintage Lane  darling using our IOD Rose Toile  Decor Stamp? All you need to recreate this look is a pillowcase, decor ink, a heart mask or stencil, and your favorite IOD Stamp. You could even make your own heart mask using some cardstock and scissors to cut out the heart.


Some other stamps that would be gorgeous for Valentine’s pillows would be ChrysanthemumBohemiaVeranda, or Lady of Shallot. Add a custom message with any of our letter stamps.

Valentine’s Day Small Decor with Les Cloches Mould 

Project by Papa and Mimis Workshop

This Valentine’s Day plaque is so darling! 😍 Papa & Mimi’s Workshop added the perfect touch of texture to the background using the Ephemeral Type Stamp, giving it that layered, vintage vibe we love. The gilded details on the Les Cloches Mould paired with those stunning blooms from the Lover of Flowers Transfer, are an absolute delight! Such a charming piece for the season of love. 💖

Valentine’s Day Wooden Small Decor Personalized with Initials

Project by Hameleons

How fun is this project by Hameleons?! The Typesetting Stamp (or any IOD Alpha Stamp—because who doesn’t love options? 😉) paired with the delicate details from the Alphabellies Stamp is such a darling combination.


We have an idea! What about those two sweet birds perched on a branch from our Pastiche Stamp on this one? Wouldn’t that be so charming? There are tons of gorgeous details in IOD stamps, that you can mix and match to create something simply lovely. 

We hope these projects have given you some fresh ideas for Valentine’s Day! Whether you’re making something to gift or to keep, we’d love to see what you create. 💕 Pop over to the Facebook Creative Tribe and share your gorgeous projects with us—we can’t wait to cheer you on!
