    Hi, It’s Kimberly from Sweet Red Poppy and I’m excited to share another tutorial with you! I hope you like this heart banner tutorial.

    I love decorating for each holiday and Valentine’s Day is no exception! I’ve been dreaming up Valentine’s Day brunch for my little ones and this banner will be the perfect decoration to tie it all together! The best part is it only took about 15 minutes to make and after spending the past few weeks doing some fairly labor-intensive Christmas sewing, a simple craft was just what I needed!

    Supplies for Heart Banner Tutorial

    1 Sheet 12×12 Inch Pink Felt (The Cricut brand works really well for this project!)
    1 Sheet 12×12 Inch Red Felt
    4 Felt Balls
    1 Skein Pink DMC Embroidery Floss
    2 Red Tassels
    Needle

    Instructions:

    First, decide what size you would like the hearts on the banner to be. Mine are each sized about 5 inches wide and my banner has five hearts total. If you have a large mantel or wall you may want to increase the size or the number of hearts.

    I used my Cricut machine to cut out all of my hearts, but you can easily cut them by hand!
    Once the hearts are cut out, lay them out and decide on a pattern for the banner.

    Thread a needle with embroidery floss, I used all 6 threads to get a nice weight. Gently pierce through the left side of the heart beginning from the back and pierce back through to the back of the heart about a half inch or so.

    Repeat this step on the other side of the heart, then thread the needle through the felt ball. Repeat these steps until you’ve reached the desired amount of hearts.

    Cut the embroidery floss down to a more manageable size and tie a small tassel on both sides.
    Wasn’t that easy?!? Now you can spend the rest of your time planning a cute Valentine’s Day party!
