An "easy" wreath...

I say easy...

And I mean easy because you only need 3, scratch that, 4 things!

1st is some crepe paper.  

I bought mine at JJWD for only $1.19 for 2 rolls.

I used 3 rolls.

2nd  is a piece of cardboard 

Cut into the shape of a heart. 

It doesn't need to be scientific.  Your flowers will hide any imperfections!

3rd thing is A LOT of glue sticks.

I bought mine at JJWD.

You get 20 for $1.00!!  

So buy extra...you will need them!

I wrapped my heart with crepe paper.  ( just so you couldn't see the brown cardboard)

Next is the fun part (not really)

Cut strips of paper.  Wrinkle them up. Unfold them. Fold over one edge. And start wrapping and gluing.

I found the instructions and Tutorial is here!

Much more detailed than I just gave you!

Be prepared to burn your fingers a time or two!!

The 4th thing you need is some DVR'ed entertainment.

I had 4 episodes of Tori and Dean.

It took a little longer than I thought...

But it was worth it!

I loved how it turned out!!

A five mintue Valentine craft...

I needed a little something to add to my valentines decor...

I had bought some red, hot pink, and pink felt at JJWD.

(my local hardware store)

They were 3 pieces for $1.00!

Yay!!

I cut little hearts out in all shapes and sizes...

Threaded my machine with red thread.

And just sewed them in a line.

You could easy do this with just a thread and a needle!

So easy!

So easy that I made 3 more to add in 

different places all over my house!

And it added the touch that I was looking for.
