Woven heart decoration / LETTER

A good fit for your idea?

Letter and A4 preserve the component dimensions. Choose the sheet you will print, not a different object size.

Materials and construction

Plain 100 to 140 gsm paper for a first dimensional trial; approximately 160 to 220 gsm card only after confirming the folds. Use a ruler, suitable scissors, a blunt scoring tool and a small amount of paper adhesive. An adult should handle internal cuts, holes and small fasteners.

Before making a batch

Measure the 50 mm reference and two named component dimensions.

Make a complete empty trial and document fold direction, joining order, collision, stability and any fragile features.

Repeat the trial using your chosen paper. Check that every join holds and each moving part works freely before decorating.

Orientation
Portrait

Two 54 mm-wide loop blanks, each divided into three 18 mm strands.

From file to finished page

  1. Cut both outlines and the two internal slits in each. Score and fold the midpoint so the rounded ends meet and the three strand loops stay intact.
  2. Place the two folded units at right angles. Weave the first strand alternately through a loop of the other color and around the next loop.
  3. Reverse the through/around order for the second strand, then repeat the first order for the third. Keep both layers of each loop open while threading.
  4. Ease the woven square together so the two rounded ends form the heart top. Check every crossing and the open pocket without pulling against a slit end.
Printing and use notes

Drawing dimensions describe flat paper surfaces, not verified internal capacity, load strength, fit or material compatibility.

No mailing, food-contact, archival, toy-safety, protective-wear or cutting-machine certification is supplied.

Make a plain-paper trial first; paper thickness and fold accuracy can change the fit.
