Heart Craft Day #4: Beaded Ornaments


I'd like to start off by telling everyone that I experienced my first heart related craft injury on this project. I had my wire curling tool thing on my couch and was moving around excitedly about these ornaments and the edge jabbed into my foot. All for the sake of crafting!

This is another great project to use up some odds and ends lying around the house. Pipe cleaners, wire, leftover beads from a project gone wrong... String them on, bend into heart shape, secure at the point of the heart and attach some lovely trim to hang. I made one with a leftover pipe cleaner and pony beads and another with 20g wire and some sparkly fake crystal beads I had taking up space in my craft nook.

  4. Design your form, like stars, bells, and the heart and the moon, or whatever shapes you want. The dimensions of form, is entirely up to you as well, but obviously do not want them, is not too big (we do not want a Christmas tree does not fall!). Cut fabric in pairs, with right sides together and sew around leaving a small opening. Turn right and things to beat. Pay particular attention to fill the corners, a slim instrument to make the stuffing in the corners to get. Closeopening with throwing things.
