FAQs

How do you make a heart shaped door wreath? ›

How to make
  1. Add glue to sections of the polystyrene heart.
  2. Add pom poms a few at a time, making sure the glue has time to try.
  3. Fill the front side of the heart with the pom poms.
  4. Leave enough time for the glue to dry and add a ribbon so you can hang your heart wreath!

How many rose petals do I need for a heart? ›

As a rough guide, we recommend 2 to 3 packs (20 to 30 cups total) of rose petals to create a good sized outline of a heart shape for the bridal couple to stand in.

How to decorate foam heart? ›

You can decorate the hearts however you wish. To add glitter glue, hold the glue directly over the card and make sure the nozzle is out of the way before adding a smooth line around the inside of the heart. Glue sequins to one of the hearts in whichever pattern you like.

How do you wrap a heart wreath with ribbon? ›

Wrap the ribbon around BOTH sections of the wire heart shape and tie into a knot. Trim the ends at an angle, straight, dovetailed or a combination! For the hanger, cut a length of ribbon between 10″-12″, create a loop and then glue to the back of the wreath.
