First you cut off the handles and bottom seams off of several white grocery store plastic bags. I used 52 plastic bags to make this small wreath. Then tie them in a knot around your wreath frame. When the whole wreath is filled, fluff the bags.
Next I took 4 cds that were bad. I drew hearts on the front of them, then cut the hearts out. There is some cd flaking.
Then I picked out 4 ribbons that went with my Valentine's theme. Using a hot glue gun, I glued them around the edge of the cd hearts.
Then I hot glued them onto the wreath. I also added a ribbon loop to the back of the wreath so that it is easier to hang.
A family member gave my some red and black boa yarn for Christmas. Using a crochet hook, I made a long chain out of the yarn. Then I wrapped it around the wreath 12 times.
Using a red sharpie, I drew hearts on 4 plastic bottle caps. On 4 other bottle caps I wrote things: Valentine, Be Mine, Love, and xxx ooo. The heart ones were glued over the hole in the center of each cd. The other ones were glued in between each cd. I also had some fake flowers laying around the house collecting dust. I cut the flowers off of the stems and hot glued those on the wreath as well.
Very cute idea1
