Hanging Hearts Make-Over

I don’t have a lot of Valentine’s Day decorations, but I have this hanging wire heart thingy I’ve had for years. It was time for a make-over.

Martha Stewart felt flowers to the rescue. I copied Martha’s flowers to put on the newly painted hearts. First sew a running stitch through 5 petals making a line. Tie knots on the end so they don’t pull through.

Start pulling on the thread to gather the petals, forming a flower. Tie the ends together, in a knot, on the back of the flower.

Glue a button, rhinestone or brad in the center of the flower.

I spray painted the hanging hearts heirloom white and then hot glued the felt flowers on.

That’s much better. I might add more flowers later.

Wouldn’t they look so cute on a headband or a hairclip? Maybe I’ll do that next.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit!
