Needlework: Valentine Heart Barrettes & Pins

I found this cute little Valentine Heart pattern here and the snap clips are from the Dollar Tree.   I simply sewed the valentine heart to the clip.  This is the smaller of the hearts in the directions.  Below are the larger hearts to which I attached a pin.  I used a G crochet hook and added a row of single crochet in white in the top photo.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

    These would be great for scrapping too. Or embellishing gifts. Or making a tree with some pretty lights. So many possibilities.

    I am hopping for the Creation Hop. I have an eBook giveaway going on for urban fantasy author Michelle Scott. Hop on by and win!

    A very cute idea. Thanks for sharing it. It also gives me the idea to use Felts to make hearts and attach in a similar way.

    I am stopping by from WFMW and so glad I did.

    Enjoy the rest of your week!
