Looking back over the past year, it’s hard to believe that it’s already been a year since we featured our first Valentine’s Day projects here at the fence.
Since you’ll never catch me actually WEARING a feather boa (sorry Bama Boy, I know that disappoints you..and sorry to our readers for the visual….grin) I thought I’d share how to put one on a wreath.
I almost feel a little silly putting a tutorial together, it was that easy-peasy.
Heart shaped Styrofoam wreath form (Hobby Lobby)
hot glue gun and low temp foam safe glue sticks
scissors
ribbon in color of choices for hanging
OPTIONAL FOR BANNER
stencil of X and O
craft paint in blue (or color of choice)
small sponge applicator for stenciling
It greets our guests when they enter the front door, and there’s never any doubt what season it is in our house, when they get a glimpse of my wreaths!
It’s looking a little bare on my buffet though. I think that calls for a few more fun Valentine’s projects, so stay tuned!
Pretty, sweet and simple enough to do. I might give it a whirl! Thanks for sharing this tutorial. Diane
Oh La La! I love it! I’m getting excited for V-Day crafts too!
Great kid project…so simple! I love fluffy anything….
Great idea, Heather. I’ll have to think about making some to hang from the backs of chairs at my upcoming Valentine Dinner for the ladies shelter. That’s a Sally List project, and I’m making plans! 🙂 Thanks for giving me another idea.
Simple and sweet. Love it! ~ Maureen
Heather–I love your wreath, especially on the chalkboard frame. Would you be willing to link up this post to my Valentine Link Party going on now? I’d love to have all your valentine ideas (you too, Vanessa!) linked up–your both so creative and I love your styles! Thanks. https://michellepaige.blogspot.com/2012/01/rockin-valentine-valentine-link-party.html
Very cute, and this post shows how versatile that framed chalkboard can be! I didn’t realize how popular feathered wreaths were until recently — even Willow House has them! https://suzannejackson.store.willowhouse.com/search.aspx?keyword=wreath
How cute is that boa wreath. I really like the way you placed it in the frame….and love your “pineapple lamp” I have the same one!!..It has a different shade.
The easiest projects are always the best. I have to start on my Valentine’s Day decor soon too. Love the boa.
That turned out cute. It looks good hanging over that chalkboard in your dining room. I don’t decorate for Valentines Day, but I do enjoy seeing other peoples decorations.
So cute Heather 🙂
Simple, whimsical, and even a little romantic looking. I like it!
Oh my goodness!! That is just too cute! I have been looking for a simple, yet whimsical, Valentine’s idea… I think this is it!! 🙂
That is simply adorable. I love decorating with boas too, this was really clever.
What a fantastic idea. I seem to have a boa of some sort for every holiday :-).
LOVE your framed chaulkboard in the living room. Hmmmm…I have a tray that need some tlc and could be revamped.
I just love this. You girls are so darn crafty!
