With just a few simple supplies, anyone can create these fun textured hearts that can be turned into a Valentine or hung on the refrigerator.

Materials Needed: 

Step One: Draw or use a template to trace a heart onto the paper with a pencil.

Step Two: Using the plastic needle, poke holes all around the outside of the drawn heart. Erase the pencil lines.

Step Three: Thread some yarn onto the needle and begin sewing by poking the needle through the holes randomly until the heart is filled with yarn lines.
