Framed Glitter Hearts

Hey! Here's a simple little project I made last week for Valentine's Day....


{It's the same idea as the Framed Easter Egg Art I made last Easter!}


I picked up the heart picks from a dollar store. Each package was $1.25.




And I had this Ikea frame sitting & waiting to be used!




I stuck in a piece of white cardstock...




And then started cutting the foam glitter hearts in half with a serrated kitchen knife, on a cutting board.

Tip: cut through the heart slowly & use a back & forth saw motion to get a clean cut and avoid pieces of the foam from breaking off!




Then I just started gluing the hearts in place with my glue gun!!




And then I set it up with my other Valentine's Day stuff in the living room!








With a little rearranging, I settled on this set up...




I love the pink stuff I get to put out for Valentine's Day!




Using a few of the left over hearts, I quickly whipped up this little version for the bathroom...




{The frame was also from Ikea}



I love it!
