Decorating for Valentine's Day with Jessica Griffin

Are you getting ready for Valentine’s Day? Do you do anything to celebrate? I don’t usually do anything, and Valentine’s Day isn’t a big deal in our house, but, my kids are at the age where parties with their friends are fun, so I thought we’d have a Valentine’s Day party!
I’ve been working hard to put together something fun for both the adults in attendance as well as the children… a little something for everyone if you will. Of course I turned to Pinterest for inspiration and found this:
I loved it! I have felt, I have yards and yards of felt to be honest. I buy white felt several yards at a time for projects like this. Having my Lindy’s Stamp Gang sprays makes it really easy for me to alter the felt to the color I want, instead of having several yards of several colors.
I simply picked two colors that are very vibrant, one pink, and one red. My go-to pink is always Hibiscus Rose. It’s my absolute favorite, and it’s so vibrant! For red, I used Rizzo’s Rowdy Red, another gorgeous, vibrant color. I have a vinyl tablecloth I like to use for big projects like this. I began by laying that out, laid out my felt pieces, and began spraying. I allowed the felt to dry over night and was able to sew it the following day, with no problems. Without further ado…
I have several glass jars that sit on a buffet area, and I wanted to make it more appealing. So I added lots of pink, red and white felted hearts. I loved the way it turned out, it’s a great conversation pieces, especially among other crafty moms, designing ‘on a dime!’ The best part is, my daughters (seven and six) helped to make the hearts. So they can brag to their friends about the cute decorations they made!

Full step by step directions (complete with color photos) can be found over at Makezine. I hope you’ve enjoyed this quick and easy way to alter felt using Lindy’s sprays!
