Prepare your pallet board by watering down brown paint and covering pallet board. Set aside to dry. You could also leave the pallet board natural.
Cut out a heart shape out of plain paper with scissors. You might need to try several times to get just the right heart. You want a “deep” V in the center of your heart. You’ll fill it with yarn, so the deeper the better, otherwise, you’ll start to lose your heart shape. You can use our heart template as a guide. Place your paper heart pattern onto cardboard. Trace with a pencil and cut the heart shape out with scissors. Repeat so you have three hearts.
Use the yarn to wrap your cardboard heart. There’s no right or wrong way. Wrap in the same direction about three our four times until the cardboard is covered and then randomize the yarn wrappings. Repeat until you have one white, one pink and one red heart, or any colors of your choice.
Place the three hearts onto the pallet board in the position you’d like (horizontal, vertical, straight or angled) and affix with hot glue.
awesome stuff
Hi Camille, those hearts are super cool and I really love how they are easy to make and how they also blend well with the pallet. I think I and my younger sister who is just crazy about crafts should do something like this over the weekend. Thanks a lot for the share.

Hi Camille, we loved these hearts at Throwback Thursday and featured them this week! I wish I were closer to my grandbabies because they’d be a perfect craft to share with them! They’re cute, fun and classy and you make the look very doable!

These are really cute, I love the idea to display them as art.
Super cute Valentine’s wall art! I pinned it to my wedding board to share and because my daughter, who is an avid knitter and crocheter, is getting married this summer and something like this would be perfect for her guest table. Thanks for the inspiration!
Cute idea! My sister is getting married next year and I’ll suggest that to her!
Cute and easy Valentine’s Day craft! I miss my Christmas decorations too 🙂 Thank you for sharing with us at Snickerdoodle Sunday! Pinned and tweeted to share. Have a great week!
