Andrea Vlogger Gt show us in this video 2 ways to make a String Art DIY, the “inverse way”, filling with thread all the space left outside the main figure, in this case, a heart and, on the other side, the classic way, filling the figure, in this case, the word “love”, written whith a lovely handwritting typo.
As you can see, she paints the board in blue and in pink. The thing I like the most is that she uses jute or sacking thread to make this project and it looks really great. Don’t you think so?
It’s a really lovely handmade gift to your boyfriend or girlfriend, no matter if it is because of your love, your anniversary or Valentine’s Day.
