Heart paper fan

[Heart Decorations] How to Make Heart-Shaped Paper Fans
Heart paper fan

Here’s an idea for heart-shaped paper fans that will give your room a cute vibe.

First, a quick note: a paper fan is a decoration made by combining accordion-folded paper.

This time, we’ll fold a rectangular sheet into an accordion, then bend it into a V-shape to create a heart.

Once it’s done, try decorating by sticking it on the wall and so on.

By the way, having a clip on hand makes it easy to secure the V-shape.

The fact that you don’t need scissors or glue is another great feature of this idea.

photo garland

This is a decoration idea where you attach clips to a wire and tuck in your favorite photos to create a garland-like display.

The key point is which photos you choose—pay attention to the overall color balance when arranged, and display memorable photos that suit the situation.

Since the wire and clips are made of sturdy materials, it’s recommended to print the photos on thicker stock as well to create a cohesive look.

Alternatively, using a variety of clip types on purpose can add a colorful, lively feel.
