My neighbor gave me a small pink table top Christmas tree a couple of weeks ago that she didn't want. When she gave it to me I thought, "this is the ugliest tree I've ever seen." I thought to myself, "maybe I can put it in the church yard sale."
After a couple of days though, I thought, "this might make a really cute Valentine's tree. I took off all the Christmas bulbs, the tree topper, and straightened out the branches.
Over the next few days, after work, I made some valentine's ornaments and re-decorated the tree. Here is my new and improved Valentine's tree.
Most of the ornaments I made from scraps of fun foam and scrapbook paper that I had lying around the house. I crocheted some little hearts from scraps of yarn I had. I'll post directions for the crocheted hearts on another day.
Here are some close-up photos of the tree ornaments -
This ornament was made by gluing a smaller heart made out of fun felt to a larger heart, then adding a button.
The tree topper was made from two different colors of card stock. This is a danish woven heart.
This is a pink heart made of card stock with different buttons glued on.
