Like I said in a past post, Serg and I are hosting a Valentine's Eve dinner party on Saturday for a few friends. I've been looking everywhere for some cute Valentine's decor and haven't found anything I like. I wanted our dining room to look "Valentine-y" so after searching online for some inspiration, I headed over to my Cricut and made these:
The hearts hanging from the light fixture was a last minute idea and it was really easy to make. Here's how I did it.
Materials:
- ribbon
- scrapbooking paper
- scissors
- glue
- Cricut (if you have one. It made cutting out hearts the same size really easy)
Step 1: I cut out hearts in different sizes on two different types of paper. I made sure that I had pairs of hearts that were the same size.
Step 2: Cut a piece of ribbon. Make sure to cut enough to tie around light fixture (or wherever you're going to tie it) at the top.
Step 3: Put glue around one heart and down the middle.
Step 4: Place the ribbon on the heart.
Step 5: Glue a heart the same size on top of the ribbon, matching it with the other heart.
Step 6: Repeat, alternating colors until you reach the bottom, leaving as much space as you'd like in between.
And you're done!
I <3 Valentine's Day!
