This Valentine’s Day Wreath couldn’t get any easier! To make this cute heart wreath, hot glue felt balls to a wire wreath and then add a pretty festive ribbon.
Today is an exciting day. It is the first post of a four day Valentine’s Day Series.
I’ll be sharing not only this wreath but these Valentine’s projects:
- Monday – Valentine’s Day Cookie
- Tuesday – Valentine’s Day Gift Wrapping for Cookies
- Wednesday – Valentine’s Day Card DIY
We have rounded up a few friends who will be posting their projects too!
Did you noticed I’m partial to white wreaths? I can’t seem to break the habit! 🙂 Yes, here are few of the many wreaths on my blog:
A white wreath is so versatile. I like to change out ribbons, temporarily add flowers to them and I enjoy them throughout the whole year. But, when it comes to making your wreath, go with your heart and make whatever color wreath your heart desires.

Valentine’s Day Wreath DIY
I must confess something. I made this wreath in the evening and so I didn’t take photos of the process. And then to top it all off I used every single felt ball in my inventory. This is the reason that I won’t have any photos showing how to make the Valentine’s Day wreath. I’m so sorry.
Trust me, it is super simple to make, you can do this.
Supplies:
Matching Fabric or Chunky Yarn (1/2 pound to wrap your wreath (use the code JAN10 over on BeCozi to receive a 10% discount)
120 Felt Balls ( I bought 2 packages of 60 balls)
Glue gun
Ribbon (optional)
Instructions for the Valentine’s Day Wreath:
Step 1 – Wrap Your Wreath
I had some chunky wool hanging around the house, so I used it to cover the wreath frame. Use whatever fabric that matches your felt balls. Wrapping your wreath provides a surface that you glue your felt ball on.
Make sure to wrap the frame tightly with whatever material you choose. You don’t want a bulky frame, since that means you have to cover more surface.
Step 2 – Glue Felt Balls to the Wreath
I covered the top surface of the wreath, so you’ll have a single layer of balls at this point. I placed my balls randomly and didn’t glue them in a row. It’s totally up to you what look you prefer.
Also, glue the balls that are side by side. I like the tight look without too many spaces in between the balls. Again, this is my preference.
Step 3 – Glue a Second Layer
Place them randomly with the leftover balls ( but balanced and not clumped together) on your wreath, making a sparse second layer.
Step 4 – Wrap a Ribbon Around the Top
I wrapped a ribbon through the top of the wreath and I placed a knot and bow on the top. I used the knot to hang my wreath.
And you’re ready to enjoy your wreath for Valentine’s Day!
