VALENTINES PROJECT #10 TRULY, MADLY, DEEPLY

Happy Valentines' Day!
Here is my final Valentines project......
 This project was inspired by Graffiti Art in the United Kingdom.
 I found an ugly piece of framed art at the thrift store and gave the entire piece
a couple coats of spray paint.  After letting this dry I
glued wooden letters on
(found at Michaels)...
Then I gave the entire piece a few coats of white paint, distressed it and....
thats all it took!

VALENTINE PROJECT #9 PAPER HEART GARLAND

VALENTINE PROJECT #9 is...
a paper heart garland.
 
 So easy.....supplies needed are
1. vintage music paper (or any type of paper)
2. sewing machine and thread
 Cut a bunch of paper hearts and lie two together and fold in half....using your sewing machine
stitch down the center of each folded pair placing the hearts one after another
so the thread remains intact.
Once sewn, open up your hearts by bending back at the fold lines.
 
 
String your garlands throughout your home...
 
Happy day!

VALENTINES PROJECT #7 BURLAP COVERED MASON JARS

So I'm already at project #7 for Valentine's Day!
This is a super easy project.....
stenciled burlap covered mason jars!
Burlap is sooo easy to stencil on.....I found this pretty stencil at Michaels and
used whatever white paint I had handy.
 To fray the edges of the burlap you just pull out the woven strings and
remove about 3 or 4.
So pretty and so eassssy!
