Top Tip
Bend your pipe-cleaners to arrange and position your wheat sheafs and use hidden tape in between to help them sit closely together.
How to Make
Step 1
Measure 6cm strips of yellow felt down the short side of the felt. Mark this with a ruler and pencil, then cut your strips with scissors. You will need 6 strips.
Apply a strip of double-sided tape down one side of a strip. Peel the backing from the tape and fold the felt over it to stick. Use scissors to make 1cm snips down the un-taped side, roughly 5mms apart. Repeat this for the other strips of felt.
Step 2
Apply a strip of double-sided tape down the entire length of your strips on the un-cut side. Peel the backing away and start to wrap your felt around the pipe-cleaner. Start at the top and slowly wrap it, overlapping as you go to make your wheat sheaf. Repeat this to make six wheat sheafs.
Twist the ends of three wheat sheafs together. Repeat with the other three to make two bunches.
Step 3
Make a large loop with the twisted pipe-cleaners on each bunch and twist them together and the bottom of each loop to make a heart shape. Arrange your bunches and apply double-sided tape between the wheat sheafs to hold them closer together if desired.
For your final step, tie a piece of ribbon around the base of the heart and tie it in a bow.
