Sweet heart wreaths for my front door


I was in the store a week a week or so ago and some cute wreaths that were made with wooden hearts and they had the sayings on the hearts (kiss, love, etc.).  They were "brighter" than what I usually like and at $24.99 each outta my budget.  I decided to see what I could do to duplicate in a way that I would like.  I bought a couple wreaths from the dollar store and when I told my MIL what I was making she said she had hearts I could have.  She gave me the bigger and thicker ones and also the ones that have the holes that I tied string in.  Whooo Hoooo!  LOL:)  I also picked up a few more, they were like .29 cents each at AC Moore and Michaels.  I painted,  sanded and then stained each one.  I also painted the wreath and stained it.  The wooden words I bought were already painted for like a buck at Michaels and I just sanded and stained them.  All that was left was gluing them on:)  I like them and they only cost a few bucks to make:)  Thanks for reading!
