I finally finished my Valentine's Day wreath with a couple of days to spare! I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, although it would have looked better with a heart shaped piece of Styrofoam. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find one which is why it took me later than I wanted to get started on it. I kept checking back to Hobby Lobby since there was a tag for some on the rack.
230 red circles later I finished! (No, I didn't count each one. Each circle is tucked on with a pin and I went through a box of 225 plus five more.) Ultimately, it was a really easy project, it just took a very long time to 1. trace the circle, then 2. cut each piece of fabric (I used a yard). The burlap ribbon gives it a little bit more V-day flare since without it the wreath could be used during the winter/Christmas time.
I have one more V-day project to finish up tomorrow. I will let you know how it turns out. At this point I am exhausted, Lexi is snoring, and I have to be up EARLY to teach. Have a good night!
