SUPPLIES NEEDED:

Red, white, and pink felt (We used only red and white, but you can use any combo of these colors)

Sharp scissors

Tissue or cotton batting (you can even use felt scraps)

Hot glue, glue gun

DIRECTIONS:

1. Begin by folding a piece of red felt in half. Cut out the half of a heart so when you open up the cutting, a full and even heart is created.

2. Use this heart as your stencil to cut out an additional heart of the same size.

3. Apply a strip of hot glue along the edges of one heart. Omit about an inch of fabric so you can have a place to insert stuffing. Place the second half on top of it and press.

4. Once the glue is dry, stuff the heart with batting. Make it nice and full.

5. Add some more hot glue to the omitted area and seal closed.

6. Use additional fabric to create a second heart that is slightly smaller. Layer it on to the main heart with a  little hot glue.

You now have the perfect no sew Valentine’s Day puffy felt heart. Make several to declare your love. Gather your supplies and give it a try!
