Valentine's Day Decorations: Wreaths that set the theme

My living room always looks so lonely without the Christmas lights and decorations. When it was time to take them down, I decided to replace them with red lights on my fireplace mantle. I also made a Valentine's Day wreath. I plan to shoot a video on this one for those who want to make it.

The idea just came to me. I made this wreath from pages from a kid's book and an old dictionary. The pages had already yellowed. That added a rustic look to the wreath. I used lots of glue with my handy glue gun. Basically I made little fans out of the page and glued them to a wreath.  I added heart ornaments I found at a local craft store.

More info to come.

Here are other wreaths I found on YouTube that I think are cute. Sometimes it's about finding a few things that you were about to toss out and up cycle and recycle.

Valentine's Decoration: Make a Valentine's tree

I love my Christmas tree, so I thought why not put together a Valentine's tree. Actually I needed a gift for my mother. 

I headed to Michael's store and bought my supplies. Everything was on sale. Here's what I put together in less than 30 minutes. 

Supplies:

• Small artificial tree or cover green styrofoam cone with fake ivy
• Valentines gift tinsel or wrap around tinsel
• One "heart" on a stick for the top or anything that can be the main attraction
• Christmas white lights

I already had the small Christmas tree and white lights. The new supplies cost me a total of 3 dollars. Please, use my Valentine's tree to give you inspiration. 

Happy crafting!
