DIY Mini Heart Pinatas

What's not to love about little heart pinatas? Fill them with candy for the perfect Valentine or 
use them as festive party accessories! 

Stuff You'll Need:
- a cereal box
- tape
- scissors or fringe scissors (optional)
- tissue paper
- glue stick

Let's Play!
1. Cut out two heart shapes out of the cereal box plus two 2-3 inch wide pieces.

2. Start assembling your heart- this requires a lot of tape and patience.


3. Cover heart with tissue then glue onto heart using a glue stick. 
Attach ribbon to the top of  the heart with tape.

4. Start layering your fringed tissue (that you cut ahead of time) with glue, working from the bottom up and leaving the fringes free from glue. Repeat on the other side then trim around the edges to 
make the heart shape prominent.

Tada!

Au revoir! Catch me on Instagram

I initially started this blog in 2010 to chronicle  my baking adventures. In 2013 I became a mother and this space shifted to sharing my DIYs and inspiration for creative living. Since then, I've been fortunate to work with multiple companies producing creative editorial content. As I look back at this blog, I'm reminded of how your passions can actually unfold into a career. And if you're really patient and willing to put in the all the work, dream jobs do come true. So it is here where I say au revoir to my beloved blog, aka my creative journal. You can still find me on @craftedbyjen .  xoxo, Jen
