Today's post will be a short one, I have class in an hour, but I wanted to share with you the cute Valentine craft I did over the weekend. The inspiration came from a Facebook post of a friend of mine, so I cannot take credit - thanks Christy. What was even better, I had all the supplies I needed for the project tucked away in my craft bin.
I started with burlap that I cut into 2 hearts.
I hot glues the edges together leaving a small opening.
I stuffed the hearts with grocery store bags and glue the opening closed. This is a side view, it really needed to be more full but I had already glued it closed before realizing that.
I started to get worried that it wasn't going to look good after this first coat of paint, but Christy reassured me that after it was coated a few times and dry, it would be okay.
She was right, after 3 coats of red paint, this is what it looked like.
After it was dry, I added some white polka-dots ...
a chevron burlap bow and some red floral wire to hang it with.
This is the finished product on the front door!
