These decorative hearts are easy to make and will be a great activity for the whole family. Here, the children can also join in the fun.
Select the papers you want to use. I have used these Valentine's papers from Basic Grey. The size of the sheets is 6x6 inches. They fit well with the template I made myself.
Make a heart template from cardboard and draw hearts on the back of the papers. You need 4 hearts for each Valentine's heart you will make. You can therefore get one heart from a 12x12 sheet.
Cut out all the hearts.
Fold the hearts in half.
Select four by four hearts, which you will put together to form a Valentine's heart.
Glue the four hearts together, so that you get a Valentine's heart like this. Cut off any paper that comes out after gluing the heart together.
Make a hole in the heart and thread a metal wire through, for hanging. Hang the heart on a ribbon and thread on a silver bead or other desired decoration.
Hang the hearts for decoration.
