Romantic souvenirs related to the theme of love are always an up-to-date gift that you can give not only to your spouses, but also to your relatives and even children. Everyone will be pleased to receive a small romantic surprise made with their own hands - for example, a small heart. You can make any number of such hearts in a short time - for this you only need red paper clips.
Instructions
Step 1
Take a paper clip and locate the longest part of it. Bend this part gently without deforming the other sides of the paper clip so that you get an obtuse angle of 90 to 110 degrees. Use your fingers to shape the paperclip into the final heart shape by joining the ends at the bottom with a sharp corner.
Step 2
You can attach such hearts to a postcard, attach to clothes or a bag, make an original decoration out of them. You can also make hearts of different colors using multi-colored paper clips - not only red, but also yellow, green, orange and many others.
Step 3
Practice creating hearts from paper clips so that you get quick and neat products. After a while, you can easily determine the longest side of the paper clip by eye - it depends on this whether your heart will be neat.
Step 4
If you want the heart to have a sharp bottom edge, place your fingers as close to the fold as possible. If you place your fingers far from the fold, the tip of the heart will turn out to be rounded.
Step 5
Try to use only colored paper clips and do not use simple metal - colored paper clips, thanks to the soft shell, do not put pressure on your fingers and are easily bent.
Step 6
Bend the paperclip a little more than 90 degrees so that the finished heart can be attached to clothing, a photograph, or a postcard, but do not bend it too much so that the heart does not turn out to be narrower.
