Heart art

Today’s finished project that I’m sharing comes to you from Heather Bullard http://heatherbullard.typepad.com

You’ll find it under the category “handmade” and labeled Valentine’s Day Craft.

Of course, I missed the Valentine’s Day completion date. But not to worry, because they are so pretty and vintage-looking, you can display them year ‘round!

Thank you Heather for sharing this project. I finally had a use for 10 strands of old pearls! I still have some left over…

I made the charms from an old metal charm belt from the “Mod Squad” days. Remember those?? Glue some torn word strips onto the clean metal discs, two coats of nail polish, a jump ring and ta-da , a charm…

On closer inspection, just have no idea where the word “sign” came from… LOL. And I know all my words were single page copies so there’s no word on the back.

I read about “Life Just Right” in one of my favorite magazines Cottage Living and I LOVED that phrase. I have a list in my journal with that title. When a craft project turns out this great, I file it under my heading “Life Just Right.”

Happy crafting!

    What's up with the 'sign' word? Thought that was funny but the heart is soooo pretty, who cares what it says right?
