AN EASY VALENTINE CRAFT FOR YOUR HOME!

Hi there welcome!   Valentines day is approaching us rather quickly and if you know me you know that not a holiday goes by without  some fun décor . Today I have a great craft ....easy to do and very inexpensive!  What you will need is some heavy material such as upholstery material and some regular cotton material that can be ripped into pieces. If you choose a plain material you can add some grain sack style to it such as I did. Your table is going to look Valentine festive !


The best way to cut a heart out is to fold it in half  and then just make a light pencil or chalk mark. Our Goodwill often has material ...the local material store donates to them so I got about a yard and 1/2 for 1.99




Now you are going to get your material fringe ripped up I would say mine are about 7 in. x 3 in so rip enough to go around  , I used a pair of scissors to make the hole just big enough to feed the material through and knot it up

I decided to go for the Grain sack look so I just used some tape and regular craft paint to make the lines

so here we have it a pretty dot of décor for your table




I also made some small hearts and added some grain sack lines and made a garland for my bakers rack. I took a piece of light cardboard and cut the heart out and sewed them on my machine.......yes did you know you could sew paper on your machine?   Any questions on this craft please give me a holler, I would be pleased to assist you! Hope you will get your craft on and give it a try!
