How to make a garland for Valentine

Two days left to Valentine’s Day and the net has been filled with hearts. I did not want to be less and with some sheets of newspaper and a piece of red cardboard I have prepared this garland for valentine.

Do you want to see how it’s done?

We start by cutting out some pennants on newspaper, choosing the parts of the newspaper that only have letters. With the red cardboard we cut out the hearts and form the roses. We glue the hearts in the center of the pennants with stick glue.

To make the roses we use a circle of 5 cm in diameter. If we use a die, they will be perfect.

With scissors we cut the circle into a spiral.

And starting from the outside of the spiral we roll the cardboard to form the rose. We can help ourselves with a thin toothpick to make it easier to start rolling the cardboard at the beginning of the spiral.

Once the entire spiral is rolled, apply a little hot silicone to the base so that the cardboard does not lose shape.

With the hot silicone gun we stick the flags on a red string. We turn the garland over and glue the cardboard roses to the ends of each pennant.

And it’s already finished. In less than fifteen minutes we have a very cute Valentine’s garland.
