$2 Felt Scallop Heart Garland Valentine’s Day Project
You know the feeling when you stumble across something unexpectedly? That happened to me on Monday. I had an errand to run and after I was done I spotted a Dollar Tree I had never been in. I almost drove by but I could see some Valentine’s Day things peeking through the doorway. I stopped on a whim and stumbled across some cute things! $2 Felt Scallop Heart Garland Valentine’s Day Project .
First of all, I love felt. And I love gingham. So I had to pick up a couple packs of these scalloped hearts. And a bunch of the gingham ribbon. I had no idea what I would do with them but I knew I could make something.
I got home and started playing around. I also bought a metal heart wreath form. I spent some time experimenting with the wreath. Then I took the scallop hearts out of the package. They are a steal – 8 for $1. I laid a few out on my counter and made a little garland. SO easy. I hung it on my mantel.
Then I made another one to go over my front door. But it was super windy so I ended up putting it in my little farmhouse kitchen nook. I added a few red pillows and a little scallop cake stand for some Valentine’s happiness.
I can’t wait to show you the wreath I made. It goes along with the banner!
And check out these adorable felt heart pockets @Adventures of a DIY Mom made with the SAME Dollar Tree hearts!!

I love the garland; it’s so pretty and inexpensive. I would definitely make it with other seasonal felt (or other light-weight material–fabric, burlap, maybe wood or thin metal?) shapes, like shamrock or autumn leaves, for other seasons or holidays. Now I am even more excited to go into Dollar Tree each season, and that is dangerous! LOL! Great idea! Thank you for sharing this!
Yay! I was just checking Etsy today! Ha! Will be stopping by there tomorrow. I’ve only been twice, and every time I go, I wonder why I don’t go more often. Did they have the gingham ribbon? Thank you for sharing!!
Obviously your Dollar Tree stocks items that mine does not. 🙁
Love your Valentine ideas. So cute.
Your dollar tree might not have those items in stock yet. I went to my local dollar tree today and they didn’t have the scallop hearts in yet. So maybe try again in a few days?
