{ try it tuesday: sentimental valentine's day wheel }

I've vowed to try AND complete more handmade projects this year and was thrilled to find this simple Valentine's Day project via Martha Stewart.

Once completed, the wheel conceals rotating sentiments and symbols that convey your affection with a turn of the wheel. The template provided is quick and easy to follow. 

My creation

I also think it'd be fun {and relatively easy} to customize it with personal terms of endearment and/or your own images/icons. I plan to present my final creation in a velum sleeve wrapped and tied with red & white baker's twine.
