Source: Uploaded by user via Belinda on Pinterest

We (I) had a WHOPPING THREE comments for the Hearty Giveaway.  Not sure how I feel about this.  I mean, 3? 

Although that is dissappointing, what is more disappointing is that I LOVE all three of my peeps that commented.  What's a girl to do?

In order of comment posting time.

It may not be pretty...but Liz, by way of Random.org, you are the winner!

I expect some dark chocolate hearts with mousse in them soon!

Ha...just kidding. Thank you so much my three friends, for validating my work.

10/366: Hearty Giveaway

Remember this? 

You can find the tutorial right here.  But, if you like this and don't want to get all Martha...I have one to give away.  Just leave a comment here (or on the Facebook post) and tell me your favorite Valentines Day gift to give, or that you have received or wish to receive.

I'll pick a name at random via my Random Number Generator Picker Name Out of Bag Boy.  I'll close comments on Saturday evening.  And ship this out to the lucky winner.

Thing A Day: 6 Valentine Felt Heart Tutorial

Happy Valentine's Day!

I love this "Thing".

The pictures don't do it justice with the color, but it is a cherry red.  Love red.

I got the idea here.  She used a plate from the dollar store, which I couldn't find.  I used a cardboard box and it worked just perfectly.

 

I adapted it a tad, don't I always?  Her plate had a curved edge, making the heart more rotund.  I used slightly smaller circles around the edge to make it look curved.  A dab of hot glue and a circle, repeat.  Over and over.

And over again.

It really was quite fun.  I added a hanger on the back and cut a piece of felt the shape of my cardboard to cover the Pampered Chef box (oh, do I love my new stone).

This way, it can be hung, or just placed.

I think this is my favorite "Thing" so far.  I smell a Shamrock!
