DIY Yarn Heart

This is a super simple craft that will take you less than 10 minutes from start to finish. I have made several of these adorable hearts – a couple are sitting on our mantel, some are in my girls’ rooms, and some were gifted to friends.

Watch my DIY YouTube video below:

Supplies:

  • thin cardboard/thick card stock (I used part of an old shoe box)
  • yarn/jute
  • scissors
  • pencil (unless you’re good at cutting hearts freehand)

Instructions:

  1. draw a heart – your heart can be any size. I made a few different sizes and set them together.
  2. cut out your heart
  3. wrap the heart with your yarn
  4. keep wrapping until the cardboard is completely covered.
  5. once the cardboard is covered, tie the yarn off and tuck the end under some of the pieces wrapped around the heart
  6. cut the excess yarn if you have any sticking out from where the knot was tucked in

Ta-da! You have an adorable yarn heart to set around your house, or gift to a friend!
