Sentimental Shaggy Heart Wreath

You can make a shaggy rag wreath using 
fabric scraps from old clothes or
any leftover material.
I made this heart wreath using a piece of
fabric from a window treatment that I made
 for my Mother's bathroom years ago.
I used a wire hanger. I Clipped off the hook
 end and bent it into a heart shape.
I ripped long strips from the fabric
and cut them into about 6" lengths.
 Then I just tied them onto the wire until it
was nice and full. I did this while watching an
appropriate Valentine movie,
'Sleepless In Seattle'....again.
Done.
I attached a ribbon and hung it on
my back kitchen cabinet.
 A free little wreath with
sentimental value...
priceless.

Happy Valentines Day!

  3. You have so many beautiful Valentine goodies - but this heart wreath is really adorable! I love simple things that I can make. I have scraps from making a Valentine wall hanging. I am going to try this. I'm not sure if I can shape the hanger, but I'll certainly try.
