How to Make a Yarn Wrapped Heart Garland

Learn how to make a yarn-wrapped heart garland using cardboard heart-shaped cutouts, rainbow-colored yarn, and twine!

Make yarn-wrapped hearts using our tutorial:
Begin by tracing cardboard hearts.
Cut them out.
Wrap them in yarn until the cardboard is completely covered.
Hot glue the yarn tail to the back of the heart to secure and finish it.
Repeat for all of the hearts.
Cut a long piece of twine.
Thread twine through an embroidery needle with a large eye.
Thread the needle underneath a couple of strands of yarn on the top of the yarn-wrapped heart, in the middle.
Continue threading yarn hearts onto the twine until all have been added.
Tie loops in both ends of the twine to make it easy to hang.
Your yarn heart garland is finished!

Medium-weight yarn works best to wrap around the cardboard shapes. (And it's often the cheapest!)
If you don't want to use twine, you can use yarn, embroidery floss, Baker's Twine, or another type of string as your garland's hanging string.
If you like this garland, you can do the same process with different cardboard shapes for other occasions or holidays (Easter eggs, shamrocks, stars for 4th of July etc.)
