Directions to make Torn Paper Heart Craft

We have a variety of Hearts templates in different sizes, available in both thin and bold lines. Download and print your preferred heart template.

For this project, we used the large heart template with bold lines.

First, Prepare the Torn Papers. Tear the coloured paper into small pieces, about 1 to 2 cm wide.

Now apply some glue on one part of the Heart template and Place the torn paper pieces one by one, filling the heart completely.

Arrange colours as you like! We made a rainbow heart, but you can create a monochrome heart, such as a pink or red one.

Once the heart is fully covered, let it dry. You can also cut the heart out from the Paper along the outline.

Your torn paper heart is now ready to be displayed or gifted!

This craft is a fantastic classroom activity, suitable for preschool to elementary-aged kids.
