This post is sponsored by Fairfield World but the ideas and opinions are my own. I love to create art to abandon and with this project, Glittery Art Abandonment Hearts, you can join me! Make a piece of art and then leave it out in the world for a random stranger to find! It's a great way to spread kindness. Quick and easy to make in just about 15 minutes, these wintery hearts get their glittery sparkle from an unexpected source – Glasslets from Fairfield World! Glasslets are mini glass beads with no hole that can also be used for weighted blankets and sensory toys, but I LOVE the way they make these snowflakes SHINE!

Here's how to create Art Abandonment Hearts:
STEP ONE
Die-cut a snowflake from a piece of white chipboard with a die and die cutting machine OR you can use your Cricut.
Apply a generous layer of glue to the chipboard snowflake.
Place snowflake on a paper plate and then sprinkle with Fairfield World Glasslets. Tap off excess and set aside to dry. Carefully fold a paper plate in half and return the excess to the original container.
LOVE that sparkle!
STEP TWO
Download, print and cut out the GLITTERY ART ABANDONMENT HEARTS PATTERN Trace onto Kunin Red Felt with the MONOTWIN marker. Cut out heart with pinking or scallop shears. Punch a hole at the top center.
STEP THREE
Cut a tag from white cardstock, punch a hole at the end. Write a message on the tag and then cut a fishtail from the opposite end with scissors.
Fold a 24” length of bakers twine in half and thread through heart, snowflake, and tag. Tie bakers twine in a bow to finish.
Customize the message and leave your newly created art out in the world for someone to find, just to brighten their day! IN CONCLUSION, MAKE KINDNESS CONTAGIOUS WHERE EVER YOU GO!
