My victorian hearts

Hi everybody, so as promised I was going to share my new hearts I was making.  This was a course taught by the 2 ladies over at  A Gilded life.  I love learning new things so this was made for me.  Christy Tomlinson was a partner in this course.

 I showed you this picture when I shared my basket makeovers.

The hearts are made out of felt.  They are joined with glue so no sewing involved.  Lightly stuff it, not to much stuffing.

 Then the fun starts.  Collect all your trims, pieces of lace, flowers, leaves and bling.

Start layering.  These are just all scraps I used on this one except for the glittery trim around the outside which I got on Michaels, marked 50% off.  The beads are from my stash which I put together in a rosary and then attached to the heart so I can now hang it.

 

Close up of my second heart.  The bling peeking out of the flowers I also got from Michaels in their beading department.  These were also marked down and there were five or six threaded together.  Took it apart so now I can use them on different crafts.

And there they are, cute hearts to display.

Have a wonderful week

Michele
