Making a Valentine Love Heart with Sweater Flowers
This was my project that started with a bunch of grapevine heart wreaths in my "to do" pile.
This is the cute, little wreath that I made from a scrap of leftover, "Love" printed burlap, a red sweater and a string of pearls.
I centered the burlap inside the wreath.
and just hot glued it onto the back.
made some sweater roses.
like this....
I just cut even strips from one sleeve.
then twisted and rolled it
tucked the end into the back
and glued it securely into place
voila...they turned out like this!
Now, it's part of our mantel décor...with lots of LOVE around our living room!

Very pretty, Janet! What a great idea to use old sweaters to make flowers. I could see these being other colors, too.
Hi Janet, very creative and perfect for Valentines. I should have kept my old sweaters...
Hi Janet, Great use for old sweaters and scraps! Very pretty!
JP,
So pretty. I love the flower made out of the old sweater. So cute. What a great way to recycle old sweaters.
