Heart card holder made of wire

Submitted by Lucida on

Make a heart-shaped card holder out of wire. The card holder fits e.g. love (God loves you), friendship (e.g. story of David and Jonathan) or is suitable as a present for Mother's Day.

material

For the card holder:

  • Wire (about 1-1.5mm thick)
  • Smooth stones
  • Side cutter
  • Flat nose pliers

For the cards:

  • A6 or A7 cards
  • colored paper
  • Colored pencils
  • scissors
  • possibly motif puncher
  • possibly zigzag scissors
  • Possibly Washi-day underlay

Instructions (card holder)

  • Shape the wire into a spiral
  • Shape heart
  • Wrap wire around a stone (like a package)
  • If necessary, bend the wire with flat-nose pliers
  • If necessary, shorten the excess wire with a wire cutter

Instructions (card)

  • Decorate the card as you wish
  • Insert the card into the card holder (wedge it between the heart and the spiral)

Tips

  • Make sure that the material and thickness of the wire is such that the children can still bend it
  • The wire should also not be so thin or soft that it can no longer carry the card
