Recycled Fabric Valentine's Day Hearts
Sometimes when I find something in my travels it gives me an idea for a project. Like today and my trip to Home Goods...
I found one cute napkin in the clearance aisle for $1.
The price was right and the fabric was so cute and perfect for Valentine's Day.
As you scroll through this post please pay attention to the bold blue links for more Homeroad information and the products I used for this project.
It reminds me of an old fashioned ticking fabric.
I brought the napkin home and started right away on my project.
I cut out a heart from computer paper then traced it onto my fabric napkin.
I cut out the hearts and like the heart garland I made recently, I used hot glue to glue around all but the bottom of the heart.
I stuffed the heart with pillow stuffing then hot glued it closed.
If you don't have pillow stuffing you can use a washed bed pillow if you aren't selling your items.
For the hanger I'm using rebar wire.
I wrapped the wire around a pencil on both ends to create the swirls.
The ends of the rebar wire get poked through the top of the heart and twisted into a safe swirl in the back.
I hot glued a button to the center of the heart.
I loved it so I made 2 more, three hearts fit on the one napkin I bought.
They are hanging on my peg shelf right now but they can also be added to a tiered tray, just twist the hanger so it hangs over the tray.
The peg shelf has scrap wood added to the pegs to create shelves, I think I'm going to paint the whole thing black.
These cute little hearts also make great Valentine's Day gifts!
