Wreaths are one of the most common crafts I see you girls making. I've never made one before, but after seeing countless posts using using foam forms and hot glue I knew I could do it.
What better way to welcome Valentine's Day than with Sweethearts {I always called them conversation hearts}.
I bought two bags of candy {and used about 1 1/2} and glued them randomly onto my form. A few hours later, my first wreath is the first thing you see when you walk in my door <3
So cute. My boys would be tempted to take off a heart and eat it glue and all :).
ReplyDeleteI love this! I want to make one myself- just trying to find the time. Great job!
ReplyDeleteWe did this with candy corns at Halloween - I love the hearts for this time of year!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I'm going to change the heart wreath I have over my fireplace to this!
ReplyDeleteThis is really cute, Heather! I don't think I've seen one with the candy hearts before.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! Hope you saved a couple of hearts to munch on between now and 2/14...
ReplyDeleteHow cute is that! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI hope you will link these up to my Valentine Party on Feb. 1st.
Thanks for sharing!

Really cute! Love that you used candy.
ReplyDeleteNeat idea! I think I will try that. I wonder if you sprayed it with a sealent would it stay good to use next year?

Adorable! What a great idea, though I am afraid if I tried it I would just end up with more in my mouth than on the wreath. You must have more self-control and I applaud you :)
ReplyDeleteThat is absolutely darling ! I love this Valentine's themed wreath. Hugs, Kate
ReplyDeleteI finally made my wreath this past Sunday. I'll post it soon.

ReplyDeleteGreat job! I am tempted to do this, but with a few days before Valentines I won't be able to enjoy it long enough. It will go on my list for next year.
