String art is fascinating, currently very popular and especially decorative. This idea is a great example of creating a contemporary string graphic. Discover the creative fun of creating your own heart picture

Thread graphic - painting with the thread
You will need a stretcher frame in the size 40 x 40 cm for reworking the mural. Print out the motif template, cut out the heart and transfer it to the white canvas with the Kreul sublimate pen "Strich-Ex".

Interesting facts about the Strich-Ex pen
The violet color liquid of the pen is self-extinguishing. This means that the strokes painted with it disappear by themselves after about 2 - 4 days. Alternatively, the strokes can be removed with water.
Crafting with heart
Glue the mini wooden coils at even intervals to the contours of the heart using craft glue.

Draw a frame on the outer edge of the stretcher frame with the Stroke-Ex pen about 1 cm from the edge and also glue it evenly with mini wooden spools.

After about 1 hour, everything will be dry enough for you to start creating a thread graphic. For this, tie the paper cords around a first wooden spool and wind tightly pulled threads between the various wooden spools, so that over time a thread pattern is created.

We hope you enjoy threading and experimenting!
