On to the next...hearts!


Sadly the 12 days of Christmas are officially over and I taking down the tiny trees and slowly sprinkling our home with all things hearts!  I am so literal about Valentine's day,
I consider it a hearts and LOVE free-for-all! 

This project was so easy and really quite cute! 
It took no more than 15 minutes to complete & hang.

I bought the styrofoam heart today (with a coupon, holla).
I had the ribbon and burlap left over from Christmas


Cut 2" strips of burlap



Used a paper brad to attach the burlap and
started wrapping tightly around the heart


Tightly wrapped, just trim off the burlap threads


Cut a strip of ribbon ~2" long to attach to the
top of the heart


I wrapped the ribbon as I would attach a luggage
tag (I really hope that makes sense, as it is what
I thought of while stringing it through)


Hung it on a mirror in our dining room




Seriously, 15 minutes start to hanging!  Get after it!
