Here is the next set of Valentine's Ideas. I sure love this holiday, and here are a few reasons why...
wooden heart chain
(Take wooden hearts, paint them, drill holes and tie them together)
FELT Valentine's cards
(I cut hearts in different shapes out of scraps of felt, stamped some smaller hearts on paper and I adhered them to cardstock for some simple and fun cards for a fun touch)
Framed Owly Love
(I cut out an owl using this template and framed it)
Valentine's Wreath
(I bought a foam wreath from the dollar store, wrapped it with some red garland I found in the Christmas clearance for 10 cents, added some wire heart garland and then cut out a heart from paper to hang in the middle and hung it up with a piece if ribbon)
Fabric Heart Applique for a shirt
(cut out a heart from fabric, then stitch around the heart leaving enough room to snip the edges so it will fray in the wash, then cut out a smaller heart for the middle and iron it on with heat n bond)
Fabric Heart Wreath
(I made this last year using this tutorial)
Little Frames full of Love
(I found these adorable frames in the $1 bins at Michaels, punched out a paper heart, I then cut out the plastic glass then added the heart with dimentionals....they come with a stand too!)
You've Got Mail
(I have seen these little mailboxes at Target, Michaels and I am sure other places. I found mine at the DI-thrift store last year and decorated it with paint, paper, ribbon and rub-ons)
Heart "Felt" Garland - my favorite
(I bought $0.98 worth of felt. Cut circles, then hearts with my pinking shears. I cut enough hearts that I put a heart on the back side as well so if I were to hang it up in a doorway it was finished on both sides. I cut 2 small slits at the top of the cirlce to then thread some glitter twine through each one to hang them up. I used spray adhesive to attach the hearts)
That little owl just made my day! And I LOVE the felt heart cards.

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I got the idea from another bag I saw, but I did make up my own pattern. It's really pretty simple. If you want I can post how I made it, or at least send you the "pattern". Just let me know. :) Good luck! It's so hard to find a good bag to hold everything.
ReplyDeletep.s. I do love all your valentines decor! So creative! :)
