Simple Valentine Heart Wreaths

January 22, 2013

My daughter was home from school yesterday.

She wanted to have a girls day out and shop but the temperature was 6 and the windchill was -14.

I am no one turn down a day out shopping, but when it is that cold I don’t  go out anywhere, not even to shop!

001wireheart

Instead we stayed home by the fire and did a little crafting.

I wanted to make something for Valentines day.

I really don’t decorate for that holiday, but thought it would be fun to make a few heart wreaths.

Since we were stuck inside, I only used what I already had on hand.

027supplies

I had some scrap muslin, some dizzy frizzy.

I found the dizzy frizzy at the thrift shop for .50.

I knew when I found the dizzy frizzy that I would figure out a fun craft project to use it for.

This craft is  so simple, I  just took some wire and made heart shapes.

With one of the heart shaped frames I took pieces of muslin that I cut 1/2 inch strips,that were ripped, and just tied the strips  around the whole wreath making knots.

002muslin

003muslinpieces

You can use pieces a little larger, but don’t make them too big.

These strips are about 5 inches long.

But don’t measure, it’s more interesting if these are not perfect and slightly different lengths.

I love how frayed the muslin looks.

Using the dizzy frizzy I just cut pieces off and tied these around the whole wreath.

Again no specific lengths, and I cut these off as I went along.

This is the wreath with the dizzy frizzy.

I love how soft it looks, I hung this on an old door piece from an old farm cabinet.

006barndoorheartwreath

Here is the muslin wreath, It has a feathered sort of look to it and I just adore it!

015muslinvalentineheart

019heartfeatheredwreath

This was so simple and so much fun to do!

026heartmuslinwreath

Here is my muslin wreath hanging on my farmhouse door.

Rose’s are a must for Valentines day!

    I love your wreaths! They are adorable! I used to decorate quite abit for Valentine’s Day, but I haven’t so much in the past few years. Not sure what I’ll do this year…maybe just a simple vignette on my dining room table. xo

      I don’t know how much I used.I was cutting it up as I went along.If I had to guess it was not even a half a yard of fabric.And it depends how fluffy you want it.

    I love how those turned out! So cute! I’ve never seen those before. I don’t usually decorate for Valentines Day. Maybe because there are nothing but boys around my house. If I had a daughter (like you) I would probably be more inclined to do that. I like where you hung your wreaths too.

      Thank you Kelly! At first I was just planning on using these wire hearts all on there own.But since we were home I had a thought of what they would look like if I did this and what about that.Valentines day decor is not really big around here.But I think these are sweet even after Valentines day and so easy too!

    Next time I see this yarn I will most certainly pick it up! It looks gorgeous and keeping my fingers crossed on the contest you entered this in! And the muslin is just as lovely! I was wondering… what if you tied it a soft shade of pink before creating it? Just a thought……

    Anne,
    How exciting that Anita interviewed you for her Back Porch Interview series. I can’t wait to hear your news that is still under wraps.

    Your two white home-made Valentine’s wreaths are just so creative and so pretty.

    This is absolutely beautiful and easy. I think I may use this idea for entrance door hangers at my February Wedding. I think it looks wintery and snowy, appropriate for a winter wedding. Can’t wait to go find that dizzy frizzy!

    That wreath is all kinds of sweet. What are its dimensions and much Dizzy Frizzy did you use? I found some online and am wondering how much to order.

    Thank you for sharing,

    Val

ABOUT THIS BLOG

ABOUT THIS BLOG

Hi I'm Anne.
I started this blog many years ago to share my passion for home decor. My tastes have changed and so did I.
We recently moved to Florida and we are starting a new chapter. My main focus on this blog has shifted. With that I'll be sharing more than home decor.
You'll see makeup tips, skincare, fashion and a little bit of decor as well. You can check out my Youtube channel as well and follow me along. I'll leave all of my older posts up as a reference. But you'll see lots of changes.
