Lovely Vintage Valentine's Sweater Wreath
From the blogger: "Making a beautiful Valentine's Wreath doesn't have to break the bank. Did you know that you can make a stunning wreath using an old sweater? Pick up a wreath form and pretty wool sweater at a thrift store, and you're pretty much good to go. After felting the sweater, simply cut it into strips and wrap your wreath form, overlapping the strip as you go. Decorate with silk or paper flowers, or use a die cut machine to make some perfectly coordinating blooms. Select a different colored sweater and you can make wreaths for other holidays or seasons, e.g., green for St. Patrick’s Day, white for winter, etc."
