Hello Friend!
Have you begun thinking about Valentine’s Day yet? I’ve started thinking of a few different recipes and dΓ©cor I’d like to make. I also love making cute treats for our kids’ classmates and I’ve narrowed my ideas down to about one hundred ten!
I’d love to share my first Valentine’s creation today….
This is super easy and fun to make! Our little daughter was so excited to help with this and I think I might just make another one for her room!
Here’s what you’ll need:
– branches
– white spray paint (I used Rustoleum from Home Depot)
– hearts (these could be foam cut-outs from the Dollar Store or made out of construction paper as well)
-glue gun
1. Collect branches from a tree in your yard.
2. I then spray painted the branches white, using Rustoleum spray paint from Home Depot. Let dry completely.
3. I then used my hot glue gun to attach the hearts to the tree and placed it in my Ikea vase for a quick and super cute craft!
What I love about it (besides the fact that it looks so pretty on my nightstand) is that it cost me $0 to make… not a penny! All the supplies were things that I already had around our home!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! If you’ve made any Valentine’s Day dΓ©cor, please leave me a comment below! If you have a blog, I’d love to pop over and have a peek!
Enjoy your day and don’t forget to come back tomorrow for our weekly link up party, Your Turn To Shine! Come share what you’ve been up to and be inspired by all the fabulous posts!
Until next time,
A lot of our Christmas dΓ©cor can be wintery and to be honest, I usually leave it out until beginning of March. However, this year I couldn’t… not sure if it’s because of my need to purge and clean or what, but I started packing it up yesterday! I’m excited though
This is so cute, Kendra!! I can see why your daughter liked making it. My kids would have loved helping with this too!
Thank you Amy! We will have to make another one on the weekend π Have a great day, friend!
Awwww, Kendra! This is just the SWEETEST! LOVE it my friend!
Thanks so much Kristi! Love how it turned out too! xo
I really like this idea! I was just noticing yesterday there are a lot of fallen branches in our backyard from our bald cypress tree. At first I was thinking they were the wrong color, but after reading how you spray painted yours, I guess it doesn’t matter! Such a good idea to paint them! I love how yours turned out!
Thank you Lisa! You’ll have to collect some! It was a beautiful day when I collected them and I spray painted them outside but guess what? The gentle breeze got some on my nice, new black boots!:( So glad you stopped by, friend!
SO cute, Kendra! I love simple decor like this. π I still have a TON of branches in my garage from my neighbors tree. I just might have to make one!! π
Thanks Amanda! You totally should π We all need “simple” every now and then, don’t we? Hope your week is going wonderful, friend!
This is so cute! Such a great idea that can be used for many holidays!
Thanks Katie π So glad you stopped by! Hope you’re having a great week!
I just love this Kendra! I have some foam hearts I bought for another project so I could make this for free. Thanks so much for sharing this!!
So glad you like it, Sydney! It sure is awesome when you have the supplies on hand already! I’d love to see yours when it’s done π xo
Hey Kendra I’m featuring you this week at Talented Tuesday! I would love to have you see you there tomorrow.
Thanks so much Sydney!! Made my day… I’ll be there tomorrow! π

Thanks soo much Deborah! You are too sweet! π
Kendra – this is adorable! I love that you painted the branches and that the hearts are styrofoam. Super cute addition to the table top! Thanks again for linking up π We greatly appreciate it!
Thanks ladies! Thanks for coming by, too! I’ll be sure to stop by your party weekly! π
Aww this is so cute!! I love the natural element of using the brancheds and then classing them up for valentine’s day!
