Valentines Wreath

I found a couple of wreaths that would be really cute for Valentines Day. This one is made of cupcake papers just folded and pinned into a foam wreath shape.
I made one of the other wreaths I found and it turned out very cute. Plus it was really easy. Cut out 3 inch circles of felt. Fold the circle in half and fold again. Then pin the corner into a foam heart wreath. It takes a little time but it turns out very cute. You need about 3/4 of a yard of felt.










I added a little ribbon and I love it! I am still working on a pink one too!

Valentines Dinner

Our ward had a Valentines Dinner/Dance and I was asked to decorate a table. I might have got a little carried away but it was a lot of fun! This is my table. Thanks to Sarah for letting me barrow her white dinner plates and to Donna for the mirror.

The red salad plates I got at Kmart. Those little boxes I already had and filled with Hugs & Kisses with a thought on love. On the outside it says, "Fortune of Love." I also including another love thought where the seat assignment would be just for conversation or whatever. I have a whole book with love thoughts and I have always wanted to use it so this was my chance. The place setting is just black cardstock paper and the goblets I found at the $ store, along with the napkin ring. I added a little ribbon to each of those to dress them up a bit.
The glass tubes I already had. I filled them up with water and fake rose petals. Then added a little ribbon to those too. The glass rocks I also had but found them at the $ store. The table turned out beautiful.

Here are a couple other tables that were beautifully decorated for dinner.

The Winner Is...


Congrats to Renee! She finished a couple of projects like her bedroom, bathroom, and these really cute letters for her girls!

Thanks to everyone else who participated too! I hope you are excited and happy that you got some of your things finished. I know I feel better once I have finished something.

For all of you who would like to make the XOXO's it is really easy and you'll love it.
I visited my local $ store to pick up some frames. If you find ones that are not black already just spray paint them. Also the glass beads I found there but you can find them at Walmart or your local craft store. Next you need some Valentines Day paper that you really love and put it where you would put the pic. Next just hot glue your beads into X's & O's, a heart, or LOVE. I added a little ribbon or flowers just for a little extra.
I hope you love it!!!
