     Here is the long awaited post. I am sorry to leave you guys hanging all day! I am really excited to share my project. I made a wreath. I was suppose to use a styrofoam heart, but EVERY craft store in my area was sold out. I improvised and I love it! I bet you will too.


Here is the finished wreath. Since I did not use a heart I added a glittery heart in the center.


You need:

Styrofoam wreath (heart or any shape)
3/4 yard felt
Small push pins
Ribbon to make a hanger
I then traced a cup from my kitchen to get a 3 in circle to cut the felt




After the felt is cut you fold a circle in half then fold it in half once more.


You take a pin and push it through the bottom point and push into the styrofoam. I cut a small piece of ribbon and pinned it wtih a few pins on the back. If you want the hanging hearts I used a pin to make a small hole and used fishing line to hang it.


This is a very easy craft. It can be a little time consuming, but fun. Who knew felt could turn into such a pretty project?


Have a Blessed Day!
