Make Ruffled-Heart Valentines with us! 💜
These origami-style hearts are super easy and add that classic Valentine's motif interestingly. While we made sure to choose rosy hues of scrapbook paper, we've mixed in some greens and yellows to avoid overdoing it with reds and pinks.
How-to:
Cut out capsule/pill shapes from your paper of choice. The easiest way to get your perfect capsule shape is to find a circle to trace (a can of beans for example), trace two circles about 2.5 inches apart, then connect them with two straight lines at the top and bottom.
Fold paper accordion-style, creasing every ⅜ inch or so.
Fold the creased paper in half to form the tip of the heart. Fan out to create the heart’s rounded top, then secure the edges of the paper at the center of the crease with clear tape.
Now you just have to decide how you want to use them! It could be as simple as placing them at guest's place settings, scattering them throughout the tablescape, or even incorporating some into your grazing station! The creative freedom is yours!
