    I made a Valentine's wreath yesterday, and since I already had a white ruffled burlap wreath, I decided to use it as my base.

    Ruffled burlap wreath

    I had made this wreath last spring, and the directions for making a ruffled burlap wreath are here.  First, I removed the lemons and the yellow flowers from the wreath.

     I decided to make a burlap envelope to hold some of my recently made fabric hearts. I used embroidery thread to stitch the envelope together.

    I  found that I could only tuck one of my hearts into the envelope, and then I embellished it with some lace, a paper tag, and a little key that says LOVE that I picked up at Hobby Lobby.

    And since nothing says Valentine's Day more than classic red roses, I added these little felt rosettes that I found at Hobby Lobby, too.

    I just spaced them out on my wreath. The rosettes do come with a little sticky back, but I hot glued them to my wreath.

    This wreath was simple to put together, and before I knew it, I had a romantic and festive wreath to welcome any guests to our home during the season of LOVE!

    It takes more than lace and ribbons

    And lovely verses too

    To make a Valentine that's nice enough for you

    It takes a world of special thoughts

    Tucked into every line

    And that's exactly what you'll find

    Inside this Valentine.

      Love both wreaths! What is the approx diameter of your wreath and what width did you use for the ruffled strips?
      Thank you so much, Gail M.

        I think that I cut the strips about 3 inches wide, Gail. I don't remember the diameter of the wreath form but I'll see if I can find the wreath and measure it for you.

      Brilliant idea to use a wreath you already had! I need to get my porch decorated...my NOEL door mat and green wreath are still out there. Pretty sad! Maybe I'll do that today. It's totally freezing here and the wind is gusting up to 50 mph. Welcome to January in Ohio. Happy Sunday Jane!
