Valentine's Day is my favorite holiday. And I love decorating our whole house with tons of Valentine's Day goodies. But this year, I had to hold back on the decorating, because we are closing on our house on Friday, so everything has to be packed up and ready to move.
But, I couldn't leave the apartment totally undecorated!
I decided to put together a quick wreath, so at least it looked Valentine's Day-ish from the outside.
And I totally plan on having the wreath in the car at closing, so when we get to the house, I can put it right up on our front door!
This was seriously so easy to put together. I used a wire wreath form (I usually use styrofoam bases for my wreaths, but this was on sale, and way way less expensive!) + burlap ribbon to make the base of the wreath. I just wrapped and wrapped the burlap until I liked how it looked :)
Then I painted and glittered a red heart - and now I'm seeing a few spots that can use some extra glitter once we are settled into the house!
And added these cute felt hearts that I found in the Target $1 Spot :)
Seriously, this project took me about a half hour total. I made it after work one day, when I was wanting something crafty to do, but didn't want to start a whole big thing. What is it about having to move and pack up all my craft goodies that makes me what to take them all out and play?!
Do you decorate for Valentine's Day, or do you let your winter decor do the talking in February?
