Valentine Wreath Craft

vintage porch parts | more

touch of and pink on your porch is a welcome sight this time of the year

i wanted to share a valentine wreath craft that was simple and where i could use re-use another wreath

using the first fabric - which was pink - i tore 1" wide and 22" long. i didn't measure - just eyeballed it

cut your fabric; you might prefer pinking the edges of the fabric

then i added fabric

i thought i would add a pink burlap bow

so i dug into our grandchildren's toy and found this little dog who will sit at the bottom of the wreath when it's hung on the front door

my idea is to create seasonal pillow toppers

that way i use the same pillows year round and just change the toppers

the reason i used painters cloth fabric is because our porch gets a lot of sun and i didn't want fading to be an issue

they are simple letters to cut out and glue on

i cut out three hearts that are approximately 13" wide

then i stitched those hearts onto of and patterned fabric that i already had in my stash

the squares are

our valentine pillows are simple indeed

update: i decided to cut two smaller hearts to put on top of the larger hearts and jazz the pillows up a bit
