To work, you need:
- a sheet of thick cardboard (it is important that it is colored on both sides);
- a piece of aluminum wire;
- thread for knitting dark red;
- a tube of PVA glue;
- scissors;
- all kinds of decorative additions (feathers, ribbons, sequins).
So, first you need to make a volumetric heart. To do this, take the wire and twist it, giving the shape of a heart. It is better to take aluminum wire, it bends very easily and you can give it any shape. If it is difficult to manipulate, then use pliers.
Wrap it with dark red knitting thread. Just make sure that no empty spaces are visible anywhere. It turns out here is such a heart - the main symbol of the holiday.
Now take a sheet of double-sided color cardboard and draw it into squares. In total, you need to make 9 identical squares, the side of each is 7 cm. A workpiece of 21 cm by 21 cm is obtained. Cut the corner squares. For work, you will need such a blank in the shape of a cross, as shown in the photo.
Fold the four side squares inward. It turns out that the fifth (middle) square will contain a surprise in the form of a heart.
Now move on to decorating the four extreme squares. You can write wishes to your soulmate, post your joint photos. Or make mini cards. For example, stick a beautiful ribbon and two pink hearts on it, decorate with small red feathers, write “Love” with ordinary knitting threads, stick on sequins and sequins.
Do not forget to stick red shiny ribbons about 15 cm long to the edge of each box. This can be done using tape or fabric glue.
Put in the center a beautiful volumetric heart that you made of wire and thread. It can also be freshened up a bit by decorating with shiny stickers. It is better to put the craft in an upright position. To do this, glue a piece of double-sided tape in the center and already attach a heart to it. Tie the opposite ribbons (in pairs). Surprise is ready.
When your soulmate untie the ribbons, you will see that you are giving her your warm, bright and loving heart. A great souvenir for the holiday.
You can hide any other surprise item in the central square: an angel figurine, a small plush animal, chocolate crafts, pendant and earrings, a ring or a perfume bottle ...
