How to Make the Paper Heart Chain Craft

What to do:

First, you draw lines about 1 and 1/2 inches apart on each paper.
Next, cut on the lines, creating strips of paper.
Write down a positive affirmation or love note on each heart link (optional).
Once all the strips are cut out, fold each strip in half to create a V.
Next, bring both ends of the strip into the center, forming a heart shape.
Then staple, tape or glue the ends together creating a heart.
Next, staple, tape or glue each heart next to one another. You can interlink the hearts if you wish.
