Hope your day was filled with love, laughter, and lots of chocolate! hehe
Alright, so I think this is going to be my last wreath for a bit. I have officially made about 8 wreaths so far, and I am going a bit stir crazy for a new project. I think I have found the new project too....will update you later this week (its a big one and I am pretty nervous about it!)
Anywho, here is my pretty Valentine's Heart Wreath....its oh so pretty!
Oh, I love it so much! I think it looks pretty luxurious, and believe me its as soft as it looks! I originally found it here.
So here is how you make it. You will need
1. 1 Heart Shaped Wreath Form (found mine at Jo-ann's for 4 bucks, they will probably be on sale now though as its Valentines.
2. Straight Pins (I bought a package of 700, though you will not need that many)
3. Red Felt (maybe a yard and a half or less?)
That's it! So easy.
Directions
1. Cut out circles. I used a cup to measure mine and traced with a marker, no I have no idea how many I cut out (honestly I don't want to know).
2. Fold circle in half, like-a soo
3. Fold again. (Thanks to my boyfriend for being a delicious hand model :)
4. Now stick the straight pin through the pointed end of the circle.
5. Pin into form
6. Repeat a gazillion times!
And there you have it! If you don't like the heart idea (for all you love haters!) feel free to switch up the pattern and do a circle wreath with different colored felt (just make sure you get the wreath forms that are rounded).
Hope you all like it!
P. s I have been tossing the idea around of selling these bad boys, anyone interested? I need opinions as to whether I should open an etsy account or not, and name ideas!
Have a great Valentines!
Cro - out!
