Challenge...complete!

I'm back!! I've been off the blogging scene for a while now but I've been stimulated to write and get back on the blogging scene.
 

Heart Badge Board - made by @GlitteredPink

Back in Feb I wrote about a challenge I had been set by a colleague to recreate a padded heart board for his daughters. Not one to turn this down I set about the task and check out the results!

Heart Badge Boards - made by @GlitteredPink

Materials:
- MDF wood cut into hearts by a specialist
- wadding
- fabric, lined with iron on vyleen
- staples
- badges to decorate

The finished size of each of these hearts is approx 1 metre by 1.5 metres.

With his daughters aged 3 and 8 the plan is for these hearts to be filled with badges and pins of places which they have visited, a visual diary. A cute idea of a way to remember all the fabulous things you have done as a child. The badges featured are in honor of the Jubilee and the exciting year which it has been for the UK.
I wish I had made one for me, next time!
