Yarn Hearts

With Valentines day just around the corner

I finally took down my paper snowflakes and decided

to add some Valentine's decor.

I made these cute yarn hearts and even though I used 

some natural colors, they sure will look adorable in

red and pink too!

I have some blue decor in my home too so I made

these four different colors. 

Aren't they cute!

Here they are up close,

one is all creme colored, one is creme with

speckles of mustard and black and the other is mustard colored.

The skeins of yarn I found at the Dollar Tree.

To make these hearts start with 

either cardboard or what I had on hand which 

is foam core board.  Use what you have on hand!

Hand draw a heart on your cardboard

or foam core board, cut it out.

Then using your yarn, tape it to the back of the heart.

Start by wrapping the yarn around the heart, keep

going til you have the heart completely covered.

Take the last piece of yarn to the back of the heart and

tie off by making a knot.  

Just keep going, back and forth like in 

the photo above.....

Here they are all done below,

scatter them around your tables or in bowls

or just sitting out.

I am going to try pick up some red and pink 

yarn this week to make some

Valentine ones.

I hope you give them a try!
