Paper Bag Heart Air Balloon Craft

How to Make Heart Hot Air Balloon Valentines

I love paper bag crafts and the bags worked perfectly for our heart hot air balloon! It's a really cute Valentine's day craft for kids to make on a budget.

I think they would look so cute if you glued a string on the back and hung them all over the classroom or your home! Download the heart template here to print.

• Fold each of the hearts in half.
• Glue one side of one folded heart to the side of another heart. Repeat for all 3.
• Unfold the hearts and you should now have a 3D heart.
• Now, cut a paper bag in roughly half. Keep the half with the flap.
