Valentine’s Day Craft - Puffy Paper Heart Plant Sticks |
|
Use up scrapbook papers to create these plant sticks for Valentine’s Day or even as a Mother’s Day gift. Two hearts are stitched together and filled with a little batting to give them some extra body and dimension. A paper flower embellishes each heart for added detail.

Instructions:
1. For each plant stick cut two same sized hearts. Place these perfectly together and stitch around the heart. Leave an opening for the batting. Stuff lightly with the batting and then finish the stitching.
2. Punch a flower out. Glue a half bead onto the flower and then the flower onto the heart.
3. Glue a shishkabob stick to the backside of the heart if using as a plant stick. You can of course create ornaments out of these hearts by hanging a string to the top instead, if you like. See picture below.
