Felt Hearts Headband & Garland

 

My love affair with felt continues.  This time, instead of being in the form of fake food, it's in the form of hearts.


Heart head bands first and heart garland to follow.


To make a heart head band, grab a few felt hearts and some fold over elastic.


Then line the hearts up on top of the fold over elastic


Sewing


Sew the ends of the fold over elastic together and you have a quick and easy Valentine's day accessory.


With the rest of my hearts, I made 'the easiest heart garland' from Made by Rae


And easy is an understatement.  This is the perfect sewing project for first time sewers.  You don't even need to make sure your lines are straight, as long as they connect one heart to the other, you've succeeded.


Heart head band and heart garland...though, if you ask Grace, she'll tell you the garland is her beautiful scarf.

    1. Thank you so much. The pendant light was a gift, from my husband, for our 5th anniversary. Thanks for noticing!

  14. I am drooling over your leaded glass window I see. And that fun star-esque pendant with a hint of gingerbread details in the corners. Your house. LOVE.

  17. I know that this comment has absolutely nothing to do with your post, but just have to comment on that window in the picture. Every time I see it in one of your photos, I can't help but thinking that I LOVE it. Something about older homes and beautiful windows just speak to me. :-)
