 Supplies:  White branches (available at craft stores or spray paint some found branches), an upcycled paperback, vintage book, or scrapbook paper. A heart paper punch, florist's wire, plastic chandelier pendants, Elmer's Glue or Modge Podge and scissors. Optional: Seam binding or ribbon.

Punch out hearts. I punched out sixty heart to make the front and back of thirty. If your book is Valentine or romance related, it's easy to center your punch to get certain words or phrases on the heart.
