I’ve had a yarn wrapped wreath gathering dust in my craft room ever since I made it and decorated with these bottle cap and button flowers. I took off the flowers and every holiday I look at it and think, “I really need to use that wreath” and never do. Until now!!
I used a few red/white twisted pipe cleaners and sparkly heart “table scatter” from the dollar store to make this adorable easy Valentines wreath!!
To make the pipe cleaner rosettes, twist the pipe cleaner in a spiral, hot gluing it in several places as it is twisted. My pipe cleaners came twisted together but if you can’t find them, simply twist red and white pipe cleaners together!
Hot glue the rosettes and sparkly hearts to the wreath, add a bright ribbon and hang it up! I love the use of very basic and inexpensive supplies – pipe cleaners & sparkly hearts – to create something so fun and perfect for Valentine’s Day!!

Love the idea of using pipe cleaners for rosettes. So much easier for kids to do too! I’ve got my Valentine’s ideas all in my head, but nowhere near started yet! Go you!

Love this project and its beautiful simplicity. Where did you purchase or how did you make the actual yarn wreath?
keri @ shaken together
It really is just yarn wrapped around and around and around a foam wreath form … inexpensive but it does require some patience 🙂 My actual tutorial is here: https://www.shakentogetherlife.com/2011/05/fin-de-friday-upcycling-free-to-fab-4.html
