It’s true that the red truck is a very popular farmhouse décor for Christmas, but I’d say we should not limit the use of them for just one holiday season. It’s time for a Valentine’s Day DIY.

These old sweaters and cloth material were used for other previous DIYs. The color combination is perfect for this project.

I also need a heart pattern (any size), old pillow stuffing, pinking shears, and a glue gun.

Fold the material, right sides together, trace the pattern and secure with a pin.

Cut along the outside line with the pinking shears.

Now, with the wrong sides together, glue the edges leaving about a 2-inch opening.

Fill with enough stuffing and then seal the opening. I made 9 hearts total, 3 of each color.

Use a serrated knife to cut a piece of styrofoam or floral foam to fit in the truck bed.

To prop up some of the hearts, glue a short length of barbeque stick at the back.

Arrange the mini pillow hearts on and around the truck.

Red truck is now loaded with hearts. I just love the way it turned out...perfect for Valentine's Day decoration!

    That's really cute!! Other little vehicles could be substituted for the red truck...perhaps a toy of some sort? I love this!! 💓
