Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing well. Today, we will be creating a simple heart garland. For this design, we will be using burlap hearts, but you can use any fabric or material for your hearts. Let's get started!

Materials
Burlap hearts- or you can use any fabric or material for your hearts
Faux pressed flowers
Craft string
Wooden beads
Hot glue
E6000
Wooden letters
Scissors
Floral cutters
Step 1: Cutting the flowers and leaves
Begin by taking your pressed flowers and leaves. Next, use your floral cutters and begin to cut them to size. I cut the stems of my flowers and leaves off on some.
Step 2: Arranging the flowers and leaves
After, take your cut flowers and leaves, and begin to add them to your hearts. I added them using my hot glue.
Step 3: Cutting the string, adding beads and fabric hearts
To start working with your beads and string, use your scissors to cut a strand of string. If you plan to add your garland to a wooden board, make sure that the string is cut to the size of the board.
First, thread the beads onto the string and place the burlap hearts between each section of beads. Then, use hot glue to attach each heart to the string. Once you have the heart garland ready, place it on top of your wooden board. Make any necessary adjustments to the garland before you glue it down onto the board. To glue it, wrap the ends of the string around the back of the board and glue them down securely.
Step 4: Adding wooden letters
Take your wooden letters and using E6000 or any other heavy-duty adhesive, add your wooden letters to your wood board. I decided to add my letters to a corner of my board.
Your heart garland is complete. Let me know if you create your own. Thanks for crafting with me!
