Valentine's Decor

Ladies from my church held a class and made these adorable table runners. I chose my fabrics for Valentine's. The table runner was so quick and easy that I will probably make one for each holiday. I love it! And it cost approximately $5.

Then I found this frame for $1 at the thrift store, painted it with paint I already have, and bought this adorable paper for about $1. It looks MUCH better in person and I TOTALLY adore it!!!

I have had so much trouble with these vase. As you can see from my paint job which needs improvement. I bought them at the thrift store for 75 cents a piece, I think. My original intention was to make these. But the paint looked terrible when I took the rubber bands off. So then I got out my hot glue gun and used this for my inspiration. I bought the flowers at the dollar store. Total cost about $10. The spray paint cost the most.

Family Wood Crafts

This is my version of what I found here. I admit that mine is not as cute, but I could not find larger hearts to save my life. So, I worked with what I could find. I allowed my kids to choose their colors. I am working on a picture to hang above it and will post them together when I get it finished.

The same day I bought cutouts for my kids to make their own...

Dad borrowed one of my son's so I will need to replace it.

Felt Wreaths

This is my lovely Valentine's wreath. I scoured my city for a heart shaped wreath to no avail. So I pulled this "Love" sign from my bedroom and slapped it on the wall with the wreath to make it a little more Valentine-like. My inspiration was found here.

My kids love the creation so much that they wanted to make their own. I allowed them to select the colors they wanted and this is what patterns they came up with...

They are both so proud of their work. I am too!
