Papercrafting Supplies in Valentine's Day Deco Mesh Wreath


 
Hi Folks! I've gone a little nuts with the after-Christmas sales at Hobby Lobby this year. A friend alerted me to one of the new store locations with a full stock of holiday merchandise at their 90% off sale. It was crazy. Nuts. People (including me!) had multiple carts full. One of our friends bought 94 rolls of wrapping paper, and there were still hundreds left. I filled one cart just with deco-mesh and wreath forms. All the Christmas red works just as well for Valentine's Day red, after all! This wreath is a super-simple one, which I was going to have my second-grade son's class make at their Valentine's Day party. It took 5 minutes to make the actual wreath, and cost $1.70. Then I thought the kids could hang some foam hearts in the middle. For my own purposes, I made my own heart with papercrafting supplies : )

Details on the heart itself are on the Winnie & Walter blog today.

Thanks for looking!

    1. Michele, you would have been a crazy shopper too at this sale ... a dozen aisles (full on BOTH sides) fully stocked at 90% off. I've never seen anything like it! My local craft ring kept posting pictures of themselves and their carts there all week on our private FB group.

  5. Love the wreath, Kelly, and it's so great you're going to help the kids make some. A friend used white mesh to decorate the cross for the altar last Easter. Just another idea. ;)
