Valentine's Day is one of my most favorite times of year! Is it yours too?
I love working with burlap! It's cheap and easy to use.
Burlap comes in so many different colors. I had red and oyster burlap on hand.
Red burlap looks super on flower pots.
Burlap also makes great looking hearts. I thought why not paint the oyster burlap to match my decor. Once burlap is painted it cuts like fabric.
You can make any shape you want.
For this project I made many pretty hearts.
I painted the hearts to match my office.
The hearts looks so sweet in the mini frames.
Here I added a painted yellow heart to a small vase. I wrapped twine around the vase and added a teeny tiny clothes pin that I painted green.
You can use any paint you have on hand.
I love how my Valentine's hearts can be used year round.
The fresh smell of lavender is wonderful this time of year.
Love is in the air!
Happy Crafting!

Very pretty, Dee! I love how you did the ones to match your office colors. Is there less mess in the cutting when they are painted then?
Cute idea Dee! Thanks!
Such pretty heart projects! I never realized you could paint burlap!
Cute, cute, cute. I can't wait to start on making a few things for Heart Day may have to use some of your idea's.
Your colored hearts are so sweet, Dee! Love how they brighten up any spot.

Dearest Dee,
Such cut out painted burlap hearts with a twine make great hostess gifts when tied around a vase with flowers!
Hugs,

The burlap hearts are so pretty! I've never though of painting burlap. Now you've given me some ideas!
I hope burlap never goes out of style! I love it! These are fun and colorful decorations..I especially love that blue!
Me Valentines Day decorating this year might only consist of candy conversation hearts, and that is if they last that long in the candy jar.
Wow. I love what you did with the burlap. The texture is really beautiful.
So pretty! Such an adorable Valentine project, Dee!I love how you framed the burlap hearts...they look very pretty! Creative, as always! hugs, Poppy
I like burlap too. Your Valentine decorations are very cute!
I had no idea you could paint burlap! I always learn something new when I visit your blog! I love the ideas you shared with us! Thank you!
I've never done anything with burlap but they have come out with so many colors and patterns that it is tempting. I think it makes such pretty hearts, too. Love your fun projects...and lavender, too! Sweet hugs!
I'm following you on pinterest now, too! I love your Spring board and bedrooms board! Hugs!
Very cute pot. I never even thought about painting the burlap. What a great idea.
Love these! I haven't worked with burlap as everyone says it's so messy. I guess with your painting it, it's easier, right? Great job! The 2 for your office are perfect in color.
