Valentines Day Hutch & Wreath Tutorial

Hello friends!

True confession time.

This Valentine's Day inspired decor that I'm
sharing with you today is from last year!

I had all the photos loaded & ready to go.
I just never posted it!
I was so surprised when I saw the draft listed.

I don't have a lot of Valentine's Day decor.
Just a few things.

This year, (well last year) I decided to make a wreath.



I really love how it turned out.
And it was so easy to make too.


Here's my tutorial on the wreath.
It's almost silly how easy it is to make.

I traced some heart shapes onto a piece of lightweight cardboard.



I cut them out.

I then took yarn, taped the end in place and began wrapping 
it around the shape.



I wrapped all willy nilly,
nothing uniform about it.


My intention was to wrap the yarn completely around
the cardboard so there would be no cardboard showing.
However, once I got going, I decided I loved
the cardboard peeking out behind the yarn,
so I left it like that.



I glued the shapes onto a grapevine wreath
and there you have it!


Don't you love an easy craft that
turns out better than you expected?
