It seems like most of the country
is experiencing really cold weather.
I like the cold weather, but I don't like being cold!
I also hate the thought of sending
my kids to school out in the cold!
I don't feel near as bad if I can warm
up their hands {and their hearts} with
Microwavable Felt Heart
Hand Warmers!

These little felt heart hard warmers are so simple
to whip up to keep you and your loved ones warm!
Supply list for
Felt Heart Hand Warmers
Instructions for making
Felt Heart Hand Warmers
Use 9 x 12 felt sheets in various colors.
Be careful to not use
felt with glitter. It made be
metallic and not microwavable.
Cut each sheet into fourths.
Layer 2 of the fourths together,
fold them in half and cut
a heart shape out.
Once the hearts are cut,
you may need to trim the edges a bit
to make sure they are the same size and shape.
Use a needle and thread to sew a blanket stitch
around the edges to connect the 2 felt hearts together.
Sew all around the edges,
leaving 2 inches open to stuff the hearts.
Use a funnel to fill the hearts with dry rice.
Then continue the blanket stitch
to close the opening.
Once the hearts are finished,
they can be warmed in the microwave
for 20 seconds.
Then you can slip them into a coat or pants pocket.
The warmers do not stay warm
for a really long time,
but long enough to get you to your destination.
I will feel so good sending these Felt Heart Hand Warmers
with my kids to keep their hands warm!

Cute! I will have to give these a try. I actually like sewing by hand as opposed to sewing with a machine. I almost sewed my finger once using a machine and have never quite gotten over my fear of them!
ReplyDeleteThese are super easy to hand sew! Way better than worrying about sewing your finger!! :)
DeleteThese look amazing! I'll definitely have to make some of these for myself. I have trouble with the cold (Raynaud's Syndrome), and these would be so helpful in the winter. Thanks for sharing at Sweet Inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThank you Amy! I have loved having these to tuck into my pockets to warm my cold fingers! I bet it would help you too! xo
DeleteSo sweet! My adult son loves hand warmers, as he lives in the colder area of So Cal! I bet your kids love these! Thanks for sharing at Homestyle Gathering!
ReplyDeleteWe've all been really enjoying having warm hands! xoxo
