Origami Love Hearts

Origami for Young Children
I found this origami love heart at Christmas. I had been looking for some easy decorations to make , this one was easy and looked great when finished .We used scraps of paper, card ,wrapping paper and glitter and by Christmas eve my doors were covered in hearts. I have put photos of how to make it on my Children's origami page, but to be honest it could be made by primary or nursery children it is that easy.
