Ramin Razani is the author of Phantastische Papierarbeiten and Kirigami - Faszinierende Grußkarten
, and the designer of Zoolights, a fanciful menagerie of lamps, but that's another story.
Okay, okay, I'm getting to the point already.
I made Razani's star spinner as a warm up. Mine is quite large, but I think a handful of smaller ones hanging from a garland would be great for the Fourth of July. And of course Christmas.
Making your own is fairly simple. I divided my heart down the center and slid the right side down, (leave the outermost heart alone) to a point halfway between where it started and the next lower line.
Download heart files: DXF, PDF, SVG, Silhouette Studio.
Cut out the shape. Score the center line above and below the center heart. Do not score through the center heart.
Turn the center heart to one side, flipping it 180° and creasing at the center fold line. Continue to flip each of the hearts 180°, all to the same side, one at a time, from the center out. It will seem like they're winding up around the center fold.
