I absolutely LOVE the blog, "Living with Lindsey". She does this thing called "Teach Me Tuesday" where she browses the blog-o-sphere and finds fun crafts to teach her readers. Awhile back I found this super cute Valentines Day Wreath, and I thought I'd give it a try. I spent about $7 on it, all said and done, and I think it was worth it!! The original wreath creator has much better pictures than I do, but I thought I'd show you how I did it so that you can see how truly easy it was :) Who knows...maybe you'll try it out too!!
You will need:
Scrap Fabric (cut into 2x2 in squares)
Elmers Glue
1 Foam Heart (you can find it online or at JoAnns)
A pencil
A ribbon to hang your wreath with
Start w/ some fabric scraps...
Place the fabric on the pointy end of the pencil, and dip lightly in Elmer's Glue
**Make sure it's the pointy end...I'm speaking from experience here!! Heehee!**
Press the pencil & fabric into the foam heart and hold for about 2 seconds. Repeat about a million times, making sure that you get the fabric pretty close together.
I stapled my ribbon to the back of my wreath, and then tacked it to the top of my front door. I think it looks pretty good for $7, & it only took about 2 hours to complete!!
Happy Crafting!!
