I am not awesome at making wreaths.  I am in awe of people who make ornate and beautiful wreaths from scratch.  However, I wanted to make a simple and sweet Valentine’s wreath to put a little love on my door.  The skill I do have is sewing!  By only sewing some sweet hearts, you can have a quick and easy Valentine’s themed wreath!

Materials:

• Red Felt
• Red Thread
• Hot Glue Gun
• Hot Glue
• 14” Grapevine Wreath
• Twine
• Little Wooden Letters

1. Cut 4 1” x 9” pieces of felt.

2. Layer one piece on top of the other and sew together using a ¼” seam. This will create a thicker piece of felt.

3. Cut 2 1” x 12” pieces of felt.
4. Layer one piece on top of the other and sew together using a ¼” seam.
5. Fold each of your strips of felt in half and bring the open edges together.

6. Sew the edges together using a ½” seam.

7. Flip the felt loops you made so that the seam you made is on the inside. This will be the top of your hearts.

8. Fold your felt loop where you want to bottom of your hearts to be.
9. Run a ¼” seam across this fold to create the bottom of your heart.

1. Hot glue the hearts to your wreath as seen below.

1. Cut approximately 13” of twine
2. Hot glue the letters to spell “I <3 YOU” or any other Valentine’s message centered on the twine.

3. Tie the twine to the wreath allowing the letters to hang in the middle.

4. Hang the wreath by the method of your choice and enjoy!
