Securely tie the end of your yarn around the twisted center, now loop and tie a simple knot every one or two inches around the perimeter of the heart.<\/li>\n<li>Once you have made your way around the heart once, start adding knots to the center of each length of yarn. Repeat this pattern until you reach the center of the heart.<\/li>\n<li>To add beads, thread them onto your yarn between knots. (Tip: if your yarn is multiple strands like ours, you can separate out one ply and thread the bead on.)<\/li>\n<li>Finish the center by tying a double knot, and clip off excess yarn.<\/li>\n<li>To add a hanger, tie a length of yarn securely around the center twist, then wrap the twist several times for a finished look!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Love this idea? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/diy-2\/valentines-day-diy-heart-shaped-tea-bagsfor-valentines-day\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Check out another cute DIY for heart-shaped tea bags by clicking HERE!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow this cute and simple DIY on\u00a0how to make a dreamcatcher for a seasonal spin on a long-loved craft project!
