I've always felt a weird aversion to theme-y DIYs. They always look so cute in pictures, but so horribly cheesy in my living room. So I tend to avoid them like the plague.
Buuuuut with all of these sparkly things leftover from projects past, I couldn't help myself. Especially since it would make for such a horrible pun about catching the man of my dreams for Valentine's... But I'll try to restrain myself....
What you need:
Embroidery thread or yarn
Rhinestones and beads
Embroidery hoop
Glue
Scissors
What you do:
1) Tie thread around the edges of the embroidery hoop at random.
2) String some beads or rhinestones along some of the threads. I had rhinestones that had two holes, so I used two threads to suspend a couple, and then let a couple hang down. You could also tie knots on either side of the bead to keep them in place.
3) Wrap some thread around the embroidery hoop if desired.
4) Glue all the loose ends to the back of the hoop.
5) Hang up! Hint: Oh look, a preview of an upcoming apartment decor post :)
