If you can make a paper heart out of a strip of paper then you can make this heart wreath. I know I saw this idea some where...probably Martha Stewart. Here is my version.
Construction Paper cut into 1" or wider strips
glue
paper clips or clothes pins
small hole punch or awl & string to hang it
Leave a comment if you don't understand. I'll try to clarify for you. Now I skipped most these steps after the first few hearts. Once you get the hang of it you can just go ahead and fold, glue attach & clip as you build your chain.
Fold strip in half / glue outsides together
run a glue line across each edge / pinch top to base of heart and paper clip together until dry
Glue the base of each heart into the top of the next heart / paper clip / make 2 equal length chains.
Glue together at base / paper clip. Glue together at top to form heart. Glue one final heart to top / paper clip. Punch hanging holes in outer hearts ( I punched them in the top white hearts.) String floss or ribbon to desired length & hang.

I love this craft idea... I'm going to try it with the boys although I know it will start out with all of us doing it and then slowly it'll just be me... I'll send you a picture of it when it's done.
