Pom-Pom Heart Wreath

Why not create a whimsical pom-pom wreath that'll leave your sweetheart grinning ear to ear? And the best part is that it’s super easy! Begin by cutting out a large heart shape from a cardboard. This will serve as the base for your wreath. The heart symbolizes your love, making it a perfect fit for a Valentine's Day surprise. Choose the enchanting combination of Viva’s Bandana Red and Jasmine to give your wreath a brilliant pop, enhancing the red and refreshing your eyes with the whites of Jasmine- the perfect recipe for that Valentine goodness. Craft your pom-poms according to your desired size and alternate between your two chosen shades to add depth and dimension to your wreath. Using a hot glue gun, carefully attach each handmade pom-pom to the cardboard heart. Be strategic in your placement, covering the entire surface with these fluffy expressions of love. The varying shades will add charm and vibrancy to your wreath. Each pom-pom represents a piece of your love, making this wreath a truly personal and meaningful gift.

These crochet roses are immune to the passage of time, becoming a life-long token of your love. Gift this everlasting bouquet to your special someone, and let its beauty echo the everlasting love you share! And guess what, Symfonie Yarns has the perfect shade for this project.

You can either stick to a keychain size, or go as big as a pillow- there are no limitations for this project. Knit or crochet a heart plushie with Symfonie Yarns' Dried Chiles in Viva, a shade that will add a luxurious, rustic look to your creation and undoubtedly captivate your beloved's heart. Craft your heart plushie with love, and witness the magic it adds to the canvas of your shared moments.
