Instructions
Paint a wood block white and set it aside
Create rolled paper flowers by cutting different sized circles.
Then cut about 1/4 inch spiral for each circle.
Starting on the outer edge begin rolling the paper.
At the bottom of the flower secure the end with a drop of hot glue.
Trace a heart shape onto the wood block. Make it slightly smaller than you want so you can hide the lines with the flowers.
Begin gluing the flowers using the largest first and then fill in with the smaller flowers
Set your beautiful Valentine's Day decor block anywhere you'd like.
Notes
You can adjust the size of the flowers slightly by loosening or tightening the coil when you are creating them.This was a "use things I already have on hand" project but you should be able to find all of the same supplies at a craft store.Heart decor is something you may want to leave up all year. You could consider changing the color scheme to something neutral or more fitting with your own home's decor colors.
