People traditionally express their feelings for another person with cards in the form of hearts. This tradition appeared after the creation of such a romantic holiday as Valentine's Day. But, unfortunately, such cards can be bought in stores only on the eve of this holiday, but you always want to please your loved ones. That's why you need to know how to make a heart out of paper yourself, to make enjoyable ones close at all times.
The heart of paper is very easy to create. To do this, you need to know a few techniques of origami, which will help to make a voluminous and beautiful figure. You will need a square sheet of paper. The heart will turn out especially beautiful if you make it from colored paper of red or pink. So, let's start studying the technology of making crafts. Take a square sheet of colored paper of the required shade and mentally divide it into four small squares. The final size of the postcard will be exactly like one of these rectangles, so do not take too small a sheet.
Let's figure out how to make a heart of paper in stages. The prepared sheet is folded in half so that a rectangle is obtained. Then we mentally hold in it a vertical line that divides it in half, and to the top of this line we bend the ends of the rectangle. We have a multi-layered triangle. One of its vertices should look down, and the other two - in the opposite side. Fold the small portions of the lateral corners of the triangle back to turn the figure into a pentagon. Now cut the resulting blank along the symmetry axis by about one third. The final step is to bend the upper corners of the figure so that the heart turns out. That's the way to make a heart out of paper. Origami, by the way, is a universal technique that can be used to create any crafts.
To give the resulting figure a volume, you can make the second same heart, and then glue the resulting blanks "back" to each other. Using the knowledge of how to make a heart of paper, you can create a lot of great gifts for your loved ones, which will come by the way for any holiday. We will think over some original ideas for Valentine's Day presents, for example. If you make several of these hearts, you can write on each one a wish or a compliment to your young man or girl and decorate them with his / her favorite cake, cake or any other confectionery product.
Quite a different case, if you are going to make your favorite offer. Then an excellent romantic step will be the creation of a small box of hearts, inside which will be a ring. So that it does not fall, you must also put it in a beautiful box from the jewelry store.
Even a simple postcard, folded in the form of a heart, is also sure to please the recipient, because this figure is a symbol of romance, love and strong deep feelings. So do not doubt: no one will remain indifferent to your gift!
So, now you know not only how to make a heart out of paper, but you can apply your skills in practice, decorating gifts for your loved ones, dear ones and dear people for any holidays.
