My husband bought me a jigsaw for Christmas and I thought it was well past time to put it to use. Since Valentine's is right around the corner (and I can't find some of my Valentine's decor), I thought it would be fun to try making a heart door hanger.
I cut and sanded two sides of a funky heart shape..
I painted one side red and the other white.
I created this heart background, cut it out of vinyl and applied it to the wood. With the transfer tape still on, I used a sharp craft knife and trimmed around the wood.
Then, I removed the transfer tape and glued the two pieces together.
I drilled two holes, added some curly wire and a raffia bow.
I already had everything I needed on hand.
So, this project was free. I {heart} free!
