little heart garland kit.

To make your little heart garland kit you will need: a length of twine (or strong yarn), two push pins (these wood ones are nice), some felt hearts (as many as you like!) tied with a loop of embroidery thread and a pouch to put them all in.

You can make the pouch however you would like!  I used a muslin tea bag that I had.  You can usually buy them in packs of 2 or 4 at your local tea and coffee shop or at health food stores.  If you want to buy them in bulk you can order them here.  To start, tie off the bags draw string and snip of the extra thread. Then, sew a button on the front of the bag, on the bottom and in the center.

Next, take some embroidery thread (it should be long enough that you can wrap it around the button a couple of times to keep the pouch shut), tie a large knot in one end and bring it through one side of the top of the bag.  If you would like, you can stitch a felt heart to the end. Put the push pins, twine and felt hearts into the pouch and give it to a loved one!  When they open it up they can string the hearts onto the twine and find a special spot for it!
