Make a mobile with strings of 3-D hearts. This is a great decoration for Valentine’s Day.
Supplies Needed:
- Red, pink, white, purple, and other construction paper (alternatively, oak tag or gift wrap)
- Pencil
- Scissors
- A long length of colorful yarn (thick yarn works better than thin string)
- Glue stick
- A sturdy paper plate
- Markers, crayons, or paint
- Stapler or tape
Instructions
1.
Draw a spiral on a paper plate. Cut along the line.
2.
Decorate the paper plate using markers, crayons, or paint.
3.
Using the instructions on this page, make a few strings of 3D hearts, with 3 to 4 heart triplets on each string. You may have to make a knot under each heart to keep it from sliding down the string (if the string is too thin or if you don’t use enough glue).
4.
Staple or tape a few strings of hearts to the paper plate. Attach another short length of string to the plate; it will be used to hang the mobile up.
You now have a cute heart mobile for Valentine’s Day.
