I've seen a ton of these cute little heart garlands around the web lately and decided it was high time for me to make one for myself! I was mainly inspired by this post, but still managed to put my own creative twist into it!
What You'll Need:
Old Book Pages
Construction Paper
Scissors
Needle & Thread
Instructions:
1. Cut out several small to medium paper hearts out of the construction paper and old book pages.
2. Use the needle and thread to thread all of the hearts together. I basically just put the needle through the bottom of one side of the heart and brought it up through the other side.
It should look a little something like this once you've threaded some of the hearts together;
Basically, that's all you need to do! Just keep threading the hearts together until you've got a row long enough for your taste! I ended up doing two different garlands then pinned them together in the center. This is what mine turned out like;

They're super cute and super easy to make, so give it a try and let me know once you do so I can see your results! :)

that looks amazing! I'd love to try it for my room - there's a lot of empty wall space that I've been trying to fill up.
