L.O.V.E.

I've been feeling in the crafty mood since before Christmas so when I was at Roger's Gardens and saw some LOVE letters like the ones above I new I could make them. They were a whopping $62.00 for the four letters. I made them for $10. Each paper mache letter (found at Joann's) was $1.99 on sale from $2.99. I already had paper and all the little goodies I added to them. They were super easy to make and took me about an hour and a half from start to finish.
I also found a cute Martha Stewart Pom Pom Garland at Joann's which was 40% off. Quick and easy to assemble (you get two 6 foot garlands, each garland has 6 pom poms). I took some left over burlap and folded over the ribbon of the garland. I then glued some hearts I made from cardboard (cereal box), glue and glitter. Easy Peasy.
I'm not sure how much extra stuff I want to gather together to put with the letters or if I just want to let them stand alone.
I'm loving the letters. The ones at Roger's Gardens are done in deep reds, they were incredible, but these are more my style!
