This is a fun little project that makes for an excellent valentine's day gift! The instructions are easy and the project only requires some paper, thread, and a glass jar. In my tutorial I use small cork jars, but the project can be scaled to fit any transparent container by adjusting the size of the paper used.

Find a glass, or transparent container to place the hearts. Make sure it is tall enough to fit both hearts.

Fold two traditional origami hearts. The size of the square paper you use depends on the size of the container.
