What is how to make a heart out of a gum wrapper?

Here's how to make a heart out of a gum wrapper:

1. Preparation: Carefully unwrap your gum. Smooth the wrapper out as much as possible. Foil wrappers work best.

2. Folding in Half: Fold the wrapper in half lengthwise, creasing it sharply. This establishes the center line. See: Folding%20Techniques

3. Folding the Edges to the Center: Open the wrapper and fold each of the long edges towards the center crease you just made. Crease well. You should now have a smaller, rectangular shape.

4. Folding in Half Again: Fold the rectangle in half again, lengthwise, along the original center crease. You should now have a thin, folded rectangle.

5. Creating the Point: At one end of the folded wrapper, pinch one of the corners and fold it inward at an angle. Repeat on the other corner of the same end. These folds create the point of the heart. These folds should be symmetrical.

6. Rounding the Top: Now, at the opposite end (the flat end), gently curve or round the top edges of the wrapper inward towards the center. This creates the rounded curves of the heart shape. You can use your fingernail to press and shape the foil. See: Shaping%20Foil

7. Final Shaping: Refine the shape by pinching and gently bending the heart into its final form. Adjust the curves and the point to make it as symmetrical as possible. See: Symmetry%20in%20Crafts

That's it! You've created a heart from a gum wrapper. This simple craft is a great way to pass the time.
