Who doesn't want to give a successful party. In the previous blog post I showed how to make a colourful DIY Party Decor Wall you can click here to view it.
In this DIY Tutorial I am going to show how to make these Floating Hearts for any party decor or just for fun. These so so easy to make that you don't need any kind of special skills to make it. Keep reading forward to learn to make these.
SUPPLIES:
1.Popsicle sticks
2.Glue(Hot Glue Gun used here)
3.Acrylic Paints
4.Thread
METHOD:
1.For making one heart shape you will require 8 popsicle sticks of the same size.
You can find these popsicle sticks from any craft store and they are quite cheap.
2.Start by taking two popsicle sticks and glue them making a V shape. Carefully apply the glue to the centre of the popsicle sticks and press lightly, here I am using a hot glue gun as it sticks fast but you can use any kind of glue for the same.
Similarly make two V shape to make the upper portion of the heart and glue the ends of the two V shapes together so that it looks something like the below picture.
Place another two sticks at an slight angle bending towards the inner side on both the sides. Make sure that both sides of popsicle sticks are at a same angle and when you are satisfied with it glue both the sticks carefully.
Later stick the another two posicle sticks at the ends to complete the heart shape and let it dry fully before moving to the next step.
Make as many as you want, the number depends on you.
3.Take the colour of choice to paint the hearts. I used acrylic colours as its finish is better than poster colours but again this is completely your choice to choose the type of colour.
Paint both back and front side of the hearts and also don't forget the sides. You can either choose same colour for the entire heart of can choice different colours and alternate the colours as you wish. Paint the hearts fully and let it dry.
And done!
Hang the hearts by tying one end of it with thread and stick the other end to the ceiling. Vary the length of the thread of different hearts if you want the hearts to float at different level.
PRO TIP:
Use a thin and strong thread that is either white or invisible type as this will create a illusion that the hearts are actually floating in the air from a distance. Make sure that when you stick the hearts to the ceiling that they are at a particular height and do not disturb the people standing below.
