Here is a really quick Valentine garland I read about this week, so easy, cheap and quick.

 

Valentine Garland

 

3 color Pipe cleaners

 

Use long pipe cleaners or to make a small garland decoration, cut pipe cleaner in half.

 

1.    Make a V shape from your first color pipe cleaner then bend two sides
together at the tip to join and place curve on top of each side to make a heart shape.

2.    . Take the next color pipe cleaner, make your V shape and then then
insert side piece into heart made before twisting and bending together to make next heart.

3.    . Continue like this changing colors, if desired, or using all the
same color and when complete you can tighten or loosen your hearts to all one direction and string your garland almost anywhere. Easy, inexpensive and very Valentines' Day. If you want to expand on this hot glue some small silk flowers or ribbon or curling ribbon to the hearts for decoration and even add glitter. Make some hearts!
