    I just really love this heart wreath and I think I have most of the items to make it with.

      Yay! I hope you have fun making one!

  2. Margaret Wise says:

    Wouldn’t it be easier to use chenille yarn and wrap the wreath with it? Far less time consuming than tying each piece individually. Just a thought. I love the red dots and other decorations.

      I wanted this wreath to use only Dollar Tree materials so that it would be super affordable for others to recreate–it was more about getting creative; therefore, I used the mop head as the yarn. Thank you so much for being here my friend!

  3. Very cute! My granddaughter and I are going to try making this wreath this weekend. Thank you for sharing your idea.
