Introduction: Heart Clips for Your Huny!
Make a heart clip from wire to attach to a love note or Valentine!
Step 1: What You'll Need
Round Nose Pliers
Cutting Plier
18 gauge copper wire
Step 2: Cut the Wire
Cut a length of wire about 2-3 inches depending on how big you want your clip.
Step 3: Bend the Wire
Bend the middle of the wire into a V shape.
Step 4: Bend Over One End Inward
Use your round nose pliers to bend one end into a circle toward the middle.
Step 5: Continue Bending
Continue bending inward until you reach the middle of the V.
Step 6: Repeat the Process for the Other Side
Repeat the process on the other side.
Step 7: You're Done!
Your Heart Clip is finished!
You don't need to make each side the same.
Sometimes, keeping them a bit 'wonky' is cute!

You could probably "mass produce them" by making a jig of a few brads nailed into a board.

Husband reminded me that Cu is soft. Probably can work harden w/ a couple of blows from a rubber mallet.
