DIY Valentine Wreath Crafts – Adorable Valentine’s Day Decor Ideas for Your Door.

Valentine Wreath Ideas

Nothing welcomes a guest more than the front door. The front door is the first impression visitors get to your home. While the inside might be quite chaotic (mine is), while every closet might be stuffed to the brim with “stuff” (mine are), a wreath states “I am merry, welcoming, and this house is festive and fun.” It truly can tell a false story and is the number one reason I swear by a holiday wreath on my door – false impressions.

Boy I sound like I carried some of Grinch with me over from Christmas! It really is my dry humor… read on…

Consider these Valentine’s Day Wreaths to be the Facebook post that gives the social media facade. My home is beautiful. My home is kept. Let me invite you into my home.

Wise tip for keeping a false impression: You never have to open the door more than a crack.

Whether you have a February wreath for a false sense of what is inside or you have a heart wreath because you are the hostess with the mostess (yes, we know you), follow these Valentine Wreaths for inspiration this February.

… and thank you for staying with me this far!

Enjoy these Valentine’s Day Decor for your home with a focus on fourteen inspiring Valentine Mantel Ideas – Happy Valentine’s Day!

14 Inspiring Valentine Mantel Ideas

Have you cleaned up your Christmas decorations? Before I had kids, and maybe when I only had one, my Christmas decorations were always put away by the New Year. Every year and with each additional child, the date became later and later. This year, with the expected delivery of the twins, we decided to go very slim on decorations. I just couldn’t handle the babies coming and getting everything put away.

Anyways, moving on from the holidays of last year and onto the first holiday of the new year – Valentines Day! Last year you guys loved our Valentine Home Decor Ideas. This year we wanted to go a step further with a focus – Valentine Mantel Ideas. I think if you are going to decorate any piece of your home, at least get the mantel. If you can’t get to anything else in the home for that season, no big deal. The mantel is the staple of most homes and having it decorated allows you to feel as if you didn’t slack. If you are doing more than just the mantel, take a look at our Valentine Home Decor Ideas for insight.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

How awesome is this Valentine Mantel Idea? I love the empty frames with mini heart wreaths in the middle. I find this mantel so eclectic using every item in her home that incorporates love. | My Blessed Life

My favorite thing of this Valentine Mantel Idea is the Deck of Cards Garland – we all could do that with a few simple fabric scraps too! I’ts a Valentine fireplace you would be so proud of. Adorable! | Happiness is Homemade

This Valentine Mantel Idea was made with everything from Oriental Trading Company! I love the hearts that are flying off the fireplace onto the wall. | Oriental Trading Company and Design Improvised.

Love is in the air with this Valentine Mantle Inspiration. How sweet is that sparkly tassel garland and XOXO banner? You can even make your own felt heart wreath. | The Crafting Chicks

I love the touches of blue in this Valentine Mantel Idea. Not even intended for Valentine’s Day, don’t those pillows pop?! Also isn’t that heart so creative? It looks like it was made from molding or baseboard! | Remodelando La Casa

This particular blogger was a little worn out post holidays and decided to only decorate the mantel. In that, she also wanted everything simple and clean! | Random Thoughts

I love everything about the pastel colors in this Valentine Mantel Idea. The focus was mint, pink and peach. Did anyone notice the light box? | Craftaholics Anonymous

Keep the mantel toasty without burning down the home – how cute is that chalkboard fire? We also love the simplicity of this paper heart garland. The touch of tulips brings a hope of spring! | Adventures in Decorating

How much does this Valentine’s Day Mantel Pop? This blogger used everything in her home, bought nothing (and with one hand – read her blog to see how!) She inspires me to start looking around my own home! | Serendipity Refined

Valentine’s Day is all about love and how about this bible verse form 1 Corinthians 13? That can easily be made with a chalkboard in your home. I love the red on this chalkboard – perfect for Christmas and then for Valentine’s Day! | Positively Splendid

Simple, simple, simple – four vases each with a single red flower! Stand out instead with your Valentine Bouquet! I think this flower bouquet has an old ice cream churn for a vase!| Home Talk

Love is in the air! Decorate your old window pane with some Valentine Love! Fill jars with red hearts or even conversation hearts! | Craftaholics Anonymous

I get you have a boa laying around the house! If you do, this would be an easy way to decorate a Valentine’s Day Fireplace! We think jars of candy hearts would be a sweet touch. | Decor Chick

What is black and white and red all over? This! How festive is this black, white and red Valentine fireplace? As a bonus, you can replicate it because you can print the banner for free! | Tatertots and Jello

Valentine You Make My Heart Pop Printable

Valentine You Make My Heart Pop!

I love pun and I love Valentines. This adorable valentine collides two of my favorite things. This valentine is very affordable and easy to make. It’s also unique. It provides something salty to an otherwise Valentine mailbox that may be filled with sweets! You could also use this printable in our Valentines’ Day Popcorn Recipes! Just spread out the recipe into individual Ziploc bags and tie the tag on the bag with red and white twine.

Popcorn Valentine Supplies:

Red and White Twine
Tape
Popcorn Bags
Valentine You Make My Heart Pop Printable (see below)

Popcorn Valentine Directions:

It doesn’t take much to create this adorable popcorn valentine.

First, get your Valentine You Make My Heart Pop Printable (below.) You can print at home on cardstock, or we like to order from Staples. Cut out your valentines.

Second, spread out individual bags of popcorn. One bag for each Valentine.

I then took tape and curled it to make it double side. This allowed me to center my Valentine You Make My Heart Pop Printable on my bag of popcorn.

Once that was centered, I took red and white twine and tied a ribbon around the popcorn. I liked to give it a few wraps to give it a pop of color and texture.

Enjoy!

Mini Cherry Heart Pies Directions:

First, preheat oven to 350.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Lay out your Refrigerated Pie Crust.

I like to lit the pie crust get slightly room temp before the next step.

Using a 3 to 4″ heart shaped cookie cutter, you should get 8 to 10 pies from 1 box of crusts.

Cut as many heart shapes as you can. Reroll scraps as needed for more pieces. You want an even number of hearts to make the top of the pie and the bottom of the pie.

After you are done, mix together your egg egg and milk to make an egg wash.

Place half of the hearts on prepared pan(s).

Next, use egg wash to wet the edges of the hearts on the pan.

Place a small amount of the pie filling in the center of each heart.

Make a small x cut in the center of the remaining half of the hearts.

Place an x heart on top of each filled heart and press and crimp edges. A fork would be nice to help crimp your edges (see our Baking Hacks and Tips for more ideas on how to perfect pie edges!)

Finally, brush sealed pie with egg wash and dust with sparkling sugar.

Bake for 14 to 16 minutes until crust is slightly browned.

Allow to cool and enjoy!

Take the challenge! This recipe was featured on Brit+Co – we would say it has two thumbs up!
