When it comes to Valentine’s decorations, there’s little that’s less subtle than hearts, right? Honestly, I’m an unabashed lover of hearts, so today we’re embracing them with a set of easy heart placemats. I would argue, however, that the addition of a rich leathery texture and the elegant pop of simple white makes these guys a standout addition to a Valentine’s get-together. – Mandy of Fabric Paper Glue

Materials

1/2 yard white leather-look vinyl
2 sheets paper
tape
pen/pencil
scissors

Step One: Tape the two sheets of paper together long edge to long edge.

Step Two: Sketch a half heart onto the paper.

Step Three: Cut out your half heart template.

Step Four: Trace the half heart onto the back of the vinyl. Flip and trace again to create a full heart outline.

Step Five: Carefully cut out the hearts. They’re great placemats, but I discovered that they also look pretty amazing as a table runner!
