DIY Valentine’s Day gift for him
Needed materials:
• Brush

Take the thin cardboard and cut two equal strips of it.
Place one strip of cardboard inside each of the socks you want to decorate. In this way we will make sure that the paint does not pass through. Painting will be also a lot easier. Socks will stay firm so that we can achieve our heart design.
Print this heart template and cut along the lines.
