Valentine's Day continues

I made a little personalized Valentine for grand daughter Zora to hang on a wall

It started with a heart shaped unfinished wood plaque from a craft store. It comes with a hanger on the back. I then gave it a base coat of craft paint-pink of course!

I hot glued some dollar store tinsel garland around the edge and then some gold Mardi Gras beads.

I eventually got the right size of a photo of her face to mod podge glue in the center.

I had little bits and bobs to add more fun and finished with hot glued on curlie cues of tinsel (that came with wire through it)

Da Da ! Zora !

Valentine's Day

I know, I know it's terribly late but I wanted you to see some of the Valentine's Day things that I worked on. I love making Valentine crafts because they are totally glitzy and gaudy as you want them to be!

                OK ready to get started with a collection of this and that I have been collecting...

First is a Valentine wreath that started with a couple bases and adorable heart lights from the Dollar Store. I added some vintage plastic pieces, vintage angels, mardi gras beads, sequins, a printed vintage valentine and wrapped with some frilly tinsel garlands. Get out the glue gun!

OK on to the next
