Valentine's Day Ideas

This week has been exciting and crazy! Woven Home has been invited to sell our products at a local store, here in Lynchburg Va.  I will share more about this in a future post, but I have been cutting and sewing all day, everyday to make enough product for our display.  As therapy, in my down time I have been surfing Pinterest looking for Valentine's Day ideas, here are a couple of my favorites.....(all of these images can be found, and linked back to the original creator if you go to my pinterest page ((Rebekah Moody)) and look under Valentine's Day ideas)

how cute and easy is this wreath!

These are just a few of the images I have found and loved this Valentine's Day season.  I think I will be running out to Michael's tomorrow morning to buy hearts and chalk board paint.

Canvas Heart Garland

I am so excited to share this post with y'all.  (Okay I wrote y'all and I am from Wisconsin, but living in Virginia, and being married to a man from Mississippi definately has a way of changing one's speach.)  I thought about writing you, but if I was talking to you, I would have said y'all.....so there you go....


As y'all know I am working on my mudroom, and it is almost finished.  The painting is done....and I am waiting for my contractor to help me with a couple of projects before I can show you the finished product. 


So I started decorating for Valentine's Day....hope you enjoy!

Heart Garland, and Canvas Wreath

I used a heavy linen for my hearts.  I cut two identical hearts, and sewed them together, leave an opening so you can stuff it with a poly fill.  Sew the opening closed.  I sewed a little ribbon hanger at the top of each heart.  Finally I put my hearts in the washing machine...easiest way to fringe the edges.

The garland and wreath on the wall were made from torn pieces of painters canvas drop cloths. You can purchase these at any hardware store.  For the wreath, I used a metal wreath form, and for the garland I cut a clothes line to my desired length.  Rip 1" wide strips from end to end from you canvas.  Then cut so your strips are appoximately 1" wide by 8" long.  Tie the canvas strip to the wreath form or line.  Repeat a million more times!  It is easy, but monotomous.

Happy Decorating!

p.s. my hearts are two different sizes....
