Large printable heart shapes
First, here’s an extra large heart template printable!
This heart shape is a huge 10″ tall and takes 2 sheets of paper. Print the template twice and cut each out. Flip one pattern piece so the printing faces away from you. Hold the pieces up to a window so you can easily align the two parts of the pattern and tape them together. Voila, huge heart template!
The next heart is the largest heart shape that fits on a single page. It’s perfect for larger craft projects, like making “stained glass” decorations for your windows or for creating handmade Valentines.
