Recently I was at a thrift shop and bought a couple of old sweaters to use for making some crafts. I should have taken a photo of the sweater so you could see where I started, but here are some of the hearts that I managed to get from the pretty designs in the sweater.
I like to make the sweater hearts to be used as bowl fillers for a centerpiece or to set on shelves. They made cute decor items and are fun and easy to make.
I added some vintage buttons to some of them to give them some interest. They can also be used to hang on a small tree with the addition of a sewn in thread hanger.
The sweaters have a nice give to them and make it easy to work with them for turning and stuffing. What do you think?
Have you ever used sweaters for decor or ornaments?
