Back to the TopDo you have a template for the copper wire heart or is it DIY? Thanks! As soon as I wrap up Christmas, it’s time to start on Valentine’s Day projects. 🙂
This one is hand-shaped. You could enlarge your favorite heart shape, print it and use it as a template to bend the wire. Yay for Valentine’s Day!!
hi i dowloaded these files amd there are no flowers
did i do something wrong ???
Hi Kylee! We just added the flowers to the downloads, so you can re-download the project 🙂
I am a beginner at flowers, and I was wondering if this would be easy to make? Thanks!
The wreath includes 3 different crepe flowers, so you might want to start with the crepe cosmos or rose bud to get a feel for working with crepe. You can also use any flower combination you like, so if you’re not up for the peony, our anemone is a nice beginner flower!
Thanks! I was getting skeptical when I saw the peony. Thanks for the option!
Can you make these flowers with card stock? Thanks in Advance!
Hi Pam! I personally prefer text weight for all my paper flowers since it’s easier to work with, but you can certainly use cardstock 🙂
