Cut hearts and glue them together.
Using my Cricut maker (you could also use a Paper Punch), I cut 30 2″ hearts from some pink floral paper (similar) I had bought on clearance. I folded them in half and glued them together in 3’s, using a glue stick or glue pen.
Layout your design
I arranged the hearts and woven material on the Blank Canvas in a design that I wanted.
Cut twine into pieces
Once I had placed the hearts where I wanted them, I cut pieces of twine to connect them to the basket. (It still looks like a hot air balloon at this stage 😉)
Attach hearts and twine
Using a small brush, I applied mod podge to the twine pieces and hearts and attached them to the blank canvas.
For a different look, you could add any type of background color or paper to the canvas before attaching the twine and hearts.
Attach basket
After I attached the hearts and twine, I attached the piece of woven wood material with all purpose craft adhesive.
I had a scrap piece of woven wood shade material, but you could use a piece of grasscloth or heavy burlap, or really anything for the base. I was trying to create the look of a hot air balloon basket and thought the woven material had the same look. I folded the top edge over itself a couple of times for a little interest.
Add Ribbon Hanger
For the finishing touch, I added some pink velvet ribbon to hang the artwork with.
