Heart of chocolates with your own hands

You can practice in advance in his painting, and if the result does not suit you, you can print out the heart pattern and circle it. From a softer cardboard, it is necessary to cut out the bead for the heart and paste it with adhesive tape. But to make the construction dense this is not enough, so using the papier-mache technique you need to compact the heart, pasting it with pieces of newspaper. This will take some time, since you need to cover a box with several layers of newspaper, which should dry well.

Step Four : The next step is to create decorative "hedgehogs" for decoration. They are made with toothpicks, threads and cellophane (you can use cellophane for flowers). Pieces of cellophane are tied with a thread to the toothpick (it is most convenient to cut the toothpick in half and tie the cellophane to the unstable side).

Step Five : Now begins the most interesting stage - sticking on candy. Between sweets, so that there are no empty seats, stick "hedgehogs". You can also make a heart not only from sweets, but also add a bouquet of flowers that will revitalize the composition and give it a romantic feel.
