WALL OF HEARTS




I have a rather unhealthy growing collection of hanging hearts that I have hoarded from birthdays, presents, impulse buys etc for years! After having recently moved back home this became apparent and I decided to make a eclectic arrangement of hearts on one of my very plain walls. The inspiration was taken from clusters of photo frames on walls-a recent interior craze which has taken off. 

Originally all of my walls were white with just one feature wall being a floral in soft purples. Laura Ashley-Mauve Kimono to be exact. For a few weeks I pottered about with every possible colour sample of purple trying to match the shade of wall paper at the same time as standing out enough without being to dominating. Eventually I settled with a Dulux pot of purple.

Valentines hearts

I found this really cool idea off Pinterest but they were in the form of pancakes. I wanted to make mine out of white chocolate.

I looked everywhere for a piping syringe but I had no luck, so I brought some little icing tubes and piping bags. I used the lid of the icing tubes and I cut off the end, I dropped the lid into the piping bag and filled with white chocolate. Very easy to control! 

White chocolate lace hearts-valentine gifts!!!
