Recycled Valentine's Day Wreath
This project began with an old duvet cover that was on its way to Goodwill and an old broken grapevine Valentine decoration.
I put them together and they turned lovely!
I ripped up the duvet cover into long strips and tied them around a wire wreath form.
I pulled the WELCOME hearts off the old, broken grapevine Valentine decoration and wired them onto my new wreath.

And what about the leftover grapevine wreath?
I wrapped scraps from the duvet and the bows from the original decoration around the grapevine sticks.
I dipped them in a coffee bath to give them a primitive look.
I made cute little rustic bowl fillers with them.
Look around and see what you have to recycle!
Neat! Love the ingenuity.
