Crafts: Straw Heart Shape

Do you have those moments whereby you want to pamper your significant other half with handmade gifts? There are many handmade stuff which you can make for such occasions. Most common would be anything in the shape of a heart, for example paper heart[1], straw heart[2], etc. Both are branches of origami: paper origami and straw origami respectively.

Decided to try my hands at both paper heart and straw heart. Materials required are cheap and easy to get: 2 straws for straw heart; a piece of paper for paper heart.

I do not have red or pink coloured straws or paper at home. Hence, the final product in white as shown above. You can choose to make them using red or pink coloured straws or paper to create the loving atmosphere.

By the way, I did not follow the YouTube closely (especially towards the end). Because I intended to use it as a bookmark, I left one strand of straw uncut.
