Valentine’s Craft Project – Candy Heart

Note: This craft project is only for your personal use. It is copyrighted.

This is an easy Valentine’s candy craft project. It is a cute gift for your friends, family and loved ones for Valentine’s Day. It takes about 25-30 minutes to make this candy heart. You can make it with your kids, just help them to make the circle out of wire and then they can join the candy to it themselves.

Materials used in this candy craft project: hard candy, red chenille wire, floral stem wire, narrow ribbon (red, pink, or white), and pliers. You can buy these materials in a craft store or even in Wal-Mart.

Step 1. Take a piece of floral stem wire (16 or 18 ga) and bend it into a circle using pliers.

Step 2. Shape the circle into a heart.

Step 3. Take candies with red wrappers (cinnamon discs in this case) and using red chenille wire (pipe cleaner) join them to the outer contour of the heart.

Step 4. Make a loop out of a piece of narrow red ribbon and attach it to the back top of the heart with a little bit of hot glue. Now you can hang it wherever you want.

Step 5.You can use any candy you want. Your candy heart can be any size. It is all up to you. For example, you can make a strawberry candy heart out of strawberry flavored hard candy. Or you can use cinnamon discs and mint starlight candy; you can see the result in the picture below.

I wish you Happy St. Valentine’s Day!
