Materials

Instructions

1. Using pinking shears and scissors, cut 3 felt hearts in graduating sizes (our largest was 3 1/2 inches tall and wide). Cut a pair of vertical slits in the middle of the smallest heart, then lay it on top of the middle heart as a guide and mark and cut matching slits. Repeat with the middle heart to make slits in the largest.
