Heartfelt and Handmade for Valentine’s Day – Geometric Heart Art

January 30, 2018 Tutorials

I will show you how to make this adorable heartfelt and handmade for Valentines Day geometric heart art!

Heartfelt and Handmade for Valentine's Day - Geometric Art Heart  hanging on the wall.

Hello there friends, I hope you all have been well. I’ve got a fun treat for you today as I join up with Jennifer from Town and Country Living as well as some wonderfully talented friends sharing their projects too! It’s all part of a Heartfelt and Handmade hop showcasing some very sweet ideas for Valentine’s Day (which is right around the corner)… As you can see I made this sweet geometric heart art above.

This project isn’t entirely new, as I shared these geometric shapes before (here), but this time I took it an extra step further and made it extra special for the “love” holiday ;)… In case you can’t tell, this project is made out of a couple supplies, including inexpensive gold straws! It is so easy to make and I love using these shapes as wall art above our daughter’s bed.

Here is what you will need and the simple process is listed down below! Please note, you can get more details on this craft here and I did not include precise measurements for the heart. I chose to eyeball this as you could make varying sizes and honestly there is no right or wrong. I will disclose, math is not my strong suit, so I apologize if I don’t do the geometric explanations justice, haha.

Shaping the gold wire into the geometric heart.

  • You will need a pair of scissors, a package of straws (I used gold, but any color would work wonderful) and then matching chenille sticks.
  • First create your heart shape and cut the straws to size.
  • Then begin inserting your chenille sticks to connect the straw pieces. You can tie and couple chenille sticks together to make a longer strand when needed.
  • Twist and secure the ends together and then trim the excess.
  • Now create a “peace” signed pattern within the center of your heart and tie it off.
  • Next you will begin adding the 3D pieces. On the bottom section of the heart you will create a diamond with 3 more pieces. I measured and cut as I built and I found this to be the easiest way to do it.
  • Lastly create a “V” inside the top half of each heart using 3 more pieces.
  • This was just how I chose to compose it, but truly there isn’t a right or wrong way to make it and you could connect pieces however you would like. It could even be asymmetrical.

As you can see it is a fun diverse way to get crafty shapes and this would be a great project for older kiddos too!

This little project could be used for so many things, to hang on a wall, as gift tags (smaller in size), sitting on a table etc…

I hope you will maybe enjoy trying one out too!

And here below you can see how I incorporated it into my daughter’s room…

I kinda love a dramatic single heart standing there alone…

Such a pretty simple piece that brings a little modern edge to the delicate space…

Thanks so much for stopping by and don’t forget to visit the rest of my friends down below. They inspire me each and every time, I am certain you will think so too!

    Annie, when I first saw the picture I thought the heart was made of gold metal wire. I had no idea you used straws! This is such a creative idea and looks perfect in your daughter’s bedroom. Thanks so much for joining Heartfelt and Handmade!

    I was so surprised that this gorgeous heart is made with straws and pipe-cleaners! That’s amazing and so pretty! And I just love your daughter’s room, the pompoms are a real weakness for me so I’m in heaven!

    Wow! I really thought you made that out of metal and was trying to think how you soldered the ends. LOVE it!

We added the easiest DIY fountain to this area (sh We added the easiest DIY fountain to this area (shared it in stories today) and I can’t tell you enough how nice it is to hear that pretty little sound 🎵 ... I love wind chimes, chirping birds and dripping fountains... So you can imagine how fun it has been to be inside with the windows open and hearing all if those noises at once 💕. This could be a project that would be easily done with inexpensive pieces and makes a big impact for your outdoor space. Speaking of outdoor spaces, I shared ours all ready for summer up on the blog along with my friends. Come check it out if you need some easy ideas!
One bathroom for 4 people can be tricky... 🤪 Bu One bathroom for 4 people can be tricky... 🤪 But in stories I am sharing some tips and tricks for storage in a small bathroom like ours! I am talking about how we use drawers, but try to keep things pretty/functional at the same time... Come check it out and see how we think outside the box when it comes to this space! One of my new favorite tips comes from these 100% Cotton Turkish towels we were gifted from @theloomia! Not only are they pretty, they are large, but save space at the same time... You’ll have to go see what I mean in my stories, see you there! And @theloomia is offering 15% off when you use the code - Zevyjoy15 💕
I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and adding some fun wall treatments/trim... I only wish real size home DIY’s were as simple as popsicle sticks and wood glue 😂! Come see what I mean on stories... But I did grab some fresh flowers for the yard and shared how I simply decorate for this favorite season of mine, summer ☀️ . It’s all up on the blog and I am joining my friends too so come say hello 💕
I listened to your votes in stories and this old t I listened to your votes in stories and this old thrifted mirror got a few coats of “Play it Cool” (the color I had on hand from our kitchen cabinets 😉). And this hallway is finally done 🎉! Here is a little before and after... The board and batten design is from @anitayokota after I saw how she used it in her pretty bedroom I knew this would put a fun modern spin in the hallway. Some fresh paint, an affordable vintage rug and updated lighting completed this long dark space. Covering popcorn ceilings will come next, but I hope this shows how a little trim and paint go a long way when working on spaces! 🌿
This past week was a time to listen and prayerfully learn. My eyes were opened and my heart convicted to speak up and to do better... While I begin to share my content here, I will strive to move forward for change and find ways to support black lives here and at home.
Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawils Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawilson.msrd for more about this movement. My feed will be muted here as I listen and learn. I will be in stories sharing resources that support black lives. #amplifymelanatedvoices
Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out dressed sorta matching this morning 😂 This girl knows what she likes and asked to have her pink room transformed with blue... And you know when you give a mouse a cookie... 🍪 (Clearly I am the mouse 🐭 in this story 🤣) We finished up the new bead-board wall (I have trim touch up to do still) and then we are finishing spraying her little desk this afternoon. A couple vintage pieces are on the way, but otherwise I have been shopping the house for this little makeover. It’s all still in progress, but getting closer! And you all... This room is small!! So I am going to share how we tackle storage in this space so stay tuned in stories... 💕
Ever since I was little I can remember my dad tell Ever since I was little I can remember my dad telling me (who is a contractor/designer) the importance of using 3’s 💕. Now as I have made our own home, I almost always use the rule of 3’s whenever I am decorating. That goes for coffee tables, nightstands and more... I’m talking all about it and showing you some examples in stories today! And even more fun is that @boutiquerugs is offering 60% off with the code - ZEVYJOY60 ! This is the new rug we added from their collection to our bedroom here! So enjoy and have fun looking around at all their pretty selections... #boutiquerugspartner
You all know how I feel about pillows by now, don’t you?! 😂 Well in case you don’t... I think they are the best! They pull a space together affordably and make things cozy of course! You can trade them out or just keep adding to them (which is what I like to do 😉). And let’s face it, you can never have too many... Am I right? They are your artistic canvas in home decor and in my opinion there aren’t many rules to follow in the fun of mixing and matching them either! 🌿
Best of all, I’ve teamed up with 7 talented accounts to share how we used pillows to style our spaces. Head on over and check out what they’ve done... @thegingerhome
