The Art of Hearts

I’m happy to say I like to have a go at anything creative….well almost anything! I’m not good at finishing things but I love to try out stuff! At the moment I’m big into folded paper and I like to paint little rosebuds, stripes and lettering on them. I give these away (or force them upon) unsuspecting recipients. They’re mostly little paper hearts filled with big love. I’m tempted to start a blog land movement where we all start spreading a little joy and begin in our own neighbourhood by putting a heart in a complete stranger’s letterbox. Why stop there…leave them randomly at places during your daily travels…I’d love to find one and I’m sure others would too. If you are interested I could add steps for creating the paper hearts to this blog…….
