Supplies needed for Valentine’s day wreath:
- Cardboard
- Exacto knife + board
- Mini hot glue gun
- Valentine’s Day themed scrapbook paper + solid pinks
- Scissors
instructions:
*hot glue gun and exacto knife should only be used by an adult*
- Start by cutting out the heart out of the cardboard.
- Next, fold the scrapbook paper and cut out half hearts. Cut as many as you’d like, enough to fill in the wreath. This will depend on the size of the cardboard wreath and the size of the hearts.
TIP- Use different paper; I suggest using 3 different scrapbook paper, 1 pattern and two solid colors.
- Now, using the hot glue gun, glue the hearts to the wreath. Start with gluing the larger ones first and then layering up smaller hearts on top.
Don’t you think this wreath came out beautiful? Hang it on the front door, over a fireplace, or on kids’ bedroom door!
