DIY: Heart String Garland w/ Paint Samples

Since Valentine's Day is only a week away, I thought I'd share a cute and simple DIY tutorial on making a cheap heart garland! The cost to me was absolutely free, because I already had the paint samples and scrapbook paper. :) I'm pissed though, 'cause I took these pictures of the setup afterward and really enjoyed them, but Blogger is doing that stupid thing where the pictures show up really low-res and look awful! So we'll just have to deal with that...

1// Gather your supplies. I used some leftover paint samples and scrapbook paper.

2// Make a stencil and trace it onto your paper.

3// Cut out your shapes and line them up to sew.

4// Sew them up!

Such a simple project that took about 20 minutes, and it was adorable! I plan on making a bigger one for when we have a housewarming party sometime in the near future! :)

  1. This is super adorable! I wish I had a sewing machine because I would totally do this with pictures or something. Note-to-future-self I guess!

    1. You actually don't really need a sewing machine to put it together! Here's another way you could do it: http://www.designeverydayblog.com/valentines-hearts-diy/
