🎨 Crafting Love: The 5-Minute Paper Heart Garland
Whether you’re prepping for a Valentine’s bash, a cozy wedding, or just want to add some "he-art" to your home office, this DIY garland is the ultimate low-effort, high-impact project. It’s simple, stylish, and looks much more expensive than a few strips of cardstock!
đź› The Supply List
You don’t need a specialized studio for this one. Just grab:
Cardstock or heavy paper (Red, pink, and white for the classic look).
A paper trimmer or scissors.
A stapler (The secret weapon for that perfect heart shape).
Twine or string (Baker's twine adds a great professional touch).
A hole punch.
đź“ť Step-by-Step Instructions 
Strip it Down: Cut your paper into even strips. We recommend roughly 1 inch wide by 10 inches long.
Fold & Form: Fold each strip in half. To create the heart, pull the two loose ends downward toward the center fold and staple them together.
Punch it: Use your hole puncher to create two small holes near the top "shoulders" of each heart.
String it Up: Thread your twine through the hearts. You can space them out or cluster them together depending on the vibe of your event.
Style Your Space: Drape them over a dark wooden fence for contrast (as seen in our photos!) or use them to frame a dessert table.
✨ Pro-Tip: The "Cake Combo"
Pair your garland with a simple, rustic white-frosted cake. Tie a matching piece of baker’s twine around the cake tier to tie the whole aesthetic together. It’s the little details that make people think you hired a professional stylist!
