Amazing. I know. {If you missed my post yesterday check it out, it's on my sweet little boy}
And... my first tutorial. Woot woot.
So I made my first decoration for Valentine's Day. I've never decorated for V-day before, but there are so many cute things you can make. Plus, pink is my favorite color, ever! So V-day is like perfect for me.
I made this to hang on my door. Not a wreath this time. I made a wreath for fall, Halloween, and winter. I wanted something a little different. Plus, it was super easy!
Like it? Wanna know how I did it? Ok.
Here is what I used.
Not pictured- paint, paint brush, glue gun, scissors, burlap
I got the wooden heart for 75 cents at a thrift store. {score!} I sanded it a bit. You don't have to use a wooden heart. Anything sturdy like a cardboard box cut in a heart shape would work.
Then painted the edges and the top.
Next, I cut up a bunch of felt circles. I used the bottom of my Mod Podge as a template for the first circle.
Then I folded the circles in half and then in half again. Then I put some hot glue on the bottom and glued it to the heart.
Then do it again. and again. and again... You get the picture. Until it looks nice a pretty. Finally, I glue a strip of burlap on the back of the heart to hang it with.
See!? Nice.
What do you think? Have you been working on any Valentine's projects?
