This is adorable Nicole. I am going to make one and certainly link it up to your blog when I am done! I can't wait to get started! I don't have many V-Day Decor so this would look so cute strung along my fireplace. Thank you for your cute ideas and helping me make my nest cozy!
Love, Ashlee

I'm really glad you are blogging again. I know that we talk at lease once a day but it's fun do see what you are doing. Oh yea, I love the garland!
I love it!!!!
This is so creative and cute!!! I will have to try one! Thanks so much for stopping by and entering the giveaway for my etsy shop RosiePosieDesigns!!!!
I can not connect to the website. Is there anyway you can email me the link or the pattern I really want to make this this weekend :(
We made a variation of this garland for our Enrichment Night!!! There were 40 of them made and used old hymn books for the background folds!!! We pre-folded and cut all the hearts and used scrapbook paper for them! They turned out awesome and had lots of compliments!!! Loved it!!!
Nothing happens when I click on the patterns. Could you email it to me at mgroskam@gmail.com? Thank you! I love having a banner to string across my fireplace. This is perfect.
