This craft was really easy, and only took about an hour to throw together. I cut all the hearts out of felt, by hand. I wanted them to be slightly different shapes and sizes. I used 4 or 5 different colors for more variety.
After cutting out all the hearts, I got my sewing machine ready with pink string and began feeding the hearts in. As soon as the thread was nearing the end of the heart, I would lay another heart right next to the edge of the first heart and continue sewing. I moved slowly, especially between the edges of each heart. I wasn’t concerned with the way each was facing, as long as they were pointing up or down. I didn’t want them sideways. I used about 80 hearts, and the bunting is about 10 feet long. Last year I strung it back in forth in our glass storm door. This year it moved to an inside wall. Next year we will be in a new house, so who knows where it will be there. 😉
I really like it with my Love quote on canvas. They go great together. 🙂 Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!
Super cute! I was looking for something fun to do with the kids while they are on vacation. I think they would love something like this! Thanks for sharing!!
Yeah, this would be great for kids! (As long as you can trust them with scissors…) Have fun! 🙂
