Valentine Door Decor

Well, this is a super simple idea to decorate the front door for Valentine's Day. What's funny is that I came up with it all on my own!! Ha! What i mean is, usually everything I "make" is a copy of someone else's work!! Well, for once this is my own idea....not that a million people haven't already done it too...but I haven't seen before, so I can claim it as my own!!! Ha!!

You need
*a super cute Valentine plate {purchased from Target for $1.99}
*ribbon, tulle, fabric, etc
*hot glue gun and glue
*letter for the center
*paint and brush

Simple tutorial:
Paint the letter and let it dry...I used acrylic paint and it did not take long to dry!! Hot glue the letter to the center of the plate. Gather your fabric/ribbon/tulle and hot glue it to the back of your plate...make sure it is centered! Let that sit for a few minutes to set completely. You are SO DONE! Now hang it up! I put it inside my bare wreath and LOVVVVVVE IT!! I hope you try this because it is so easy and so cute!!









Hope you have enjoyed the tutorial!! Have a wonderful week!!
