February Wreath

I finished a week before February- and I have enough little hearts to make another wreath!

Here's the pile of wreath fixin's:

A wreath form, fabric, tulle, and the puffy hearts...



I wrapped pink fabric around the wreath form, then cut strips of tulle, tying them around the fabric. Poofy!



Time for the hot glue gun- thankfully (amazingly), I didn't burn myself!



I added some pretty polka-dotted ribbon...



and voila! February's wreath!



I have a lot of extra fabric, so we'll see what other goodies I can think up!

In the (Mood for) Pink

My friend Polly will understand. It's an annual urge we both share. Only this year I'm not only painting my nails pink, wearing pink shirts, and having fun with rosy lip gloss...oh no...pink has been catching my eye everywhere lately. I'm not the "romantic/shabby" decor kind of gal, with rooms overflowing with cabbage roses, white furniture, and pink galore, but I do appreciate *touches* of the flirtatious color. Who'da thunk I'd be bitten by the fabric bug while shopping this morning?

The fabric and baubles will be incorporated into some project or another, as yet, undecided. My husband won't mind as I'll take over the countertops while he's away hunting, and I've neglected using my sewing machine for far too long now.

With Valentine's Day coming up next month, I've also got love and hearts on the brain. Is it just me, or is the fruit I snack on each day even subliminally suggesting love?
