Valentine’s Day is right around the corner.
Now is the perfect time to make a DIY Valentine’s Day heart wreath!
This wreath/wall hanging is super simple and you only need a few things to make it.
MATERIALS NEEDED:
Heart wreath form. These are the exact ones I used.
Misc. fabric in your color scheme cut approx. 1″ x 8″
TIP * if you don’t have fabric scraps laying around, look at other things you could use like old sheets, flour sack dish towels, or cloth napkins you are no longer using.
Ribbon to hang the wreath-optional
INSTRUCTIONS:
Start by ripping strips of fabric in 1″ widths.
Then cut them all to approx. 8″ long.
I didn’t count how many strips I used, I just cut until I had a good pile.
Use fabrics of varying colors and weights.
The thinner the material, the easier it is to tie onto the form, but it looks great to use a variety.
I used an old white sheet, an old drop cloth, some old wool leftover from a pillow project, etc.
Now you will simply tie the strips on, one by one.
The first one tie on the first two rows, with the knot on top, as shown in the picture below.
Pick a different color fabric and tie a knot onto the two bottom wires, as shown in the photo below.
Repeat alternating rows until the entire heart is covered.
I used a double knot on all of mine.
The photo below will show what the backside looks like.
Once you have gone all the way around, I added a pretty silk ribbon to the top to hang it from.
I hung ours on our closet door in the master bedroom using a command hook.
What do you think?
Such a simple project that you can make while watching a movie!
I also love that it can be coordinated with whatever color scheme you have.
