hearts, beads, twine and hole puncher


First I cut 4 fairly large hearts from scrapbook paper


I like neutrals so I'm using a scrapbook paper with birch trees, there are so many beautiful choices.


I cut out hearts from scrapbook paper then folded them back and forth from one end to the other to make folds. 


I used a small office hole punch to put holes on both sides of the hearts. 


Now I am ready to string the hearts on cotton twine


I alternated the hearts with a wooden bead all the way across the twine.

I used a tiny dot of hot glue to hold the hearts and beads from sliding around on the twine. 


adding a drop of hot glue to the back of the heart


You can hang this pretty garland on your mantel, a window, or on a chalkboard like I did.
