Found this adorable wreath quite by accident this morning on a blog called tutus and turtles, which linked me to this blog called little birdie secrets. I thought I'd pass it along. Best part of all is it is a monkey friendly project. We will most definitely be doing this one. Check out the instructions here.
By the way: Did you know that this blog (our blog) has the possibility to be an excellent resource for posting and finding cute/fun ideas for you to do with or without your monkeys? Well, it does. So start posting those fun ideas you have/find. Let's make this a resource. Any little traditions, crafts, tips, etc. If you think it's awesome, pass it on.
Alright I LOVE this wreath and will be making one this weekend if anybody wants to join me before V-Day is actually here.
ReplyDeletep.s. Brittany I tried to make my own heart garland, like yours, but poster glitter paint and lame-o scissors just didn't do it for me... That's why I need new a Valentine's day project. Thanks for posting!!
Kayla, I would love to join you! Also, there is a cute v-day garland that my cousin made. She posted it on her blog, http://jordanandjandee.blogspot.com/2009/02/feelin-love.html
ReplyDeleteI'm debating on whether I love hers more than mine... I really think I might.
oh shoot--I couldn't resist and stayed up late, REALLY late, Thursday night to make my wreath... It turned out pretty darn cute--thanks for the idea. And to anybody else interested, I looked at Alco, Kings, Walmart, and Sierras, and couldn't find a styrofoam heart. I finally found a medium sized one at Joannes for $4.00. It was the last heart on the shelf though, so I'd call ahead before you made a trip to the big city just for it. Also, The ladies at Sierra's really seemed to think Pinehurst (green house there in Poky) would have them but I didn't stop in. And one last thing, I found it worked much better to let my glue set out for a few hours because it got more tacky-ish and I didn't have to hold each piece on for 30 seconds.
ReplyDeleteI'll post a photo of it on my blog as soon as I finish some other chores...

Hey, I'm just grateful you did all the running for me. Now I don't have to hit all the stores trying to find a styrofoam heart. Thanks for the tips. Also, don't worry, my husband popped a trip out of town on me today, so I wouldn't have been able to come anyway.
