Looking for a quick Valentines craft?

I always jump at the chance to decorate my home to suit the season. February is the month of love and I wanted to use my new Epson EcoTank printer to come up with a cost-effective way to add some valentines decorations in to my home.

These concertina heart decorations are not only easy to make, but are the perfect craft for the whole family. You can use them to make a hanging heart display, or gift them to your nearest and dearest – or even your secret Valentine!

I have made a PDF for the heart template you will need to print. All you need to do is print the document and it will include various sizes for you to make a heart decoration display. I highly recommend the Epson EcoTank printer for a quick, clean and crisp print quality. You can download the PDF below.

How to make the paper heart decorations…

I have made a quick video tutorial on how to make the paper heart decorations below. All you need to do is:

  1. Print the paper heart template onto A4 paper in your chosen colours.
  2. Cut out the template.
  3. Fold the template backwards and forwards into a concertina formation.
  4. Fold in half lengthways, then use double sided tape to secure it into a heart shape.
  5. Thread some cotton through the top centre of the heart for it to hang from.
