Are you bored of my Valentine’s posts yet? Well this is the last one I promise! ….I think so anyway 😉 I love the variations of felt wreaths I’ve seen but I wanted to make mine a tad differently so hear it is!
Take some thick cardboard and draw a heart onto it then cut your heart out. I folded it in half and cut the center out as well. Then I took Krylon’s dual and spray painted it red so none of the cardboard showed through.
Then, I made a bunch of hot pink and red felt circles.
Next, I folded them in half, then in half again, snipped off the bottom and put a big dab of hot glue on it.
I alternated red and pink and made sure they weren’t all going the same direction. I didn’t really want a uniform look… Once I filled my cardboard heart… voila!
I pretty much love it on my front door with the snowy landscape! So far it has held up well to the cold temperatures and the snow. 🙂
Hope you are enjoying preparing for Valentine’s Day! I’m so glad my crafts are done and now I have a few weeks to enjoy them! 🙂

January 18, 2014 at 10:20 amThis is darling! I would also like to know how much felt you used. Did you cut out the circles with scissors or a circle punch?
Thanks!

January 3, 2015 at 6:33 pmWhat size felt circles did you cut ? How much felt should one purchase to start the project and what size was the cardboard heart. Thanks so much! I can’t wait to make this.
