Grab These Simple Supplies

• 1 square paper (try scrapbook paper for pretty patterns)

• Your hands (that’s it! Scissors optional)

Follow These Foolproof Steps

1. Start with a Square

• Use festive red or soft pink paper.

• Pro tip: Cut a square from wrapping paper for free materials!

2. Fold Diagonal Lines

• Fold corner-to-corner to make a triangle.

• Unfold, then fold the opposite way.

• Now you have an “X” crease.

3. Add Vertical + Horizontal Folds

• Fold top-to-bottom, then side-to-side.

• Unfold—you’ll see a “+” overlapping the “X”.

4. Tuck Corners to the Center

• Fold all four points to the middle.

• Press flat like a smaller square.

5. Pop Out the Heart

• Gently pinch the sides to lift the layers.

• Adjust folds until it looks plump and symmetrical.

6. Finish with Flair

• Tie a string to hang it.

• Glue on sequins or initials for extra love.

Ways to Use Your Paper Heart

       💝 Gift topper: Slip onto presents instead of a bow.
       🎄 Ornament: Hang on a tree or doorknob.
       💒 Wedding decor: Scatter on tables for cheap romance.

Troubleshooting Tip: If your heart looks flat, re-crease the folds sharply.
