I went to my local Roberts craft store and they had these adorable paper mache purses on display. This is what it looked like before:
And here's after I decorated it!
I painted the top, sides, and bottom with a pink paint that matched my paper, and then I got two different My Mind's Eye papers from their Laundry Line paper for the front and back. I used mod podge to stick them on - I just put the glue on the back of the papers since I didn't want that glossy finish for my finished product. I added a cute picture in the heart cutout, some decorative ribbon to the handle, and a little flower to the front and poof I had a new Valentine's decoration! Have a great Sunday!
