Valentine's Day is next week, and although I don't really believe the hype, it is a great excuse to decorate using pink and red...
At M4M (Moments for Moms) last week, they made this adorable heart wreath, but I wasn't able to make it that day!! Luckily, my wonderfully crafty MIL had some supplies left over, and I was able to make one for myself... It was very simple - just a matter of tying scraps of fabric and ribbon onto a wire... Once it was complete, I had to convince Mark to put a nail in the door (yes, the one he JUST refinished in the fall after I, in a pregnancy-induced moment of frustration, had my FIL help tear off the screen door while Mark was out for the evening, resulting in a BIG unplanned project - oops!!)... It's a good thing he loves me so much!
In any case, I think it turned out nice enough to be the (self-proclaimed) cutest door on the street ;)
Then, yesterday I found a post for a free Valentine Subway Art printable (here), and I thought one more touch of pink would be nice... I just printed it on photo paper and put it in a frame I already had... Apparently, this Subway Art is all the rage right now - might have to give it a shot myself... I'll let you know how it goes :)

Oh I like what you did with the scrapbooking page. And my heart does not nearly look as nice as yours! I'm looking forward to seeing your crafty things on here!
ReplyDeleteSUCH a cute project! Man oh Man Lyn. You and I could make a killing at a craft show together ;)
ReplyDeleteThere's one here in Honduras around mother's day. You in??? ;)
I love your heart wreath. I'm a big fan of using scraps of fabric in projects. I did a round wreath, but I'd like to try a heart shaped one like you did. I hope mine turns out as pretty as yours did.
