We then placed the heart on the wax paper. If you are doing just one heart you can place in the center. <\/p>\n<p>If you want to get two hearts on each paper, put the heart on the side of the paper.

You want to cover the heart but you don&#8217;t want to cover the whole heart with glue. <\/p>\n<p>You can use less glue with the tissue paper. But don&#8217;t get upset if kids put more glue the heart.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/2-2025\/tissues-paper-hearts2.jpg\" alt=\"Stained Glass Hearts Craft For Valentine's Day - a simple wax paper craft for kids with tissue paper glue and tissue paper. - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/div>\n<h3>Step 2: Place Tissue Paper on the Glue<\/h3>\n<p>Next kids will put the tissue paper on the glue. They can use all three colors: red, purple and pink. But if they only use one color  that is okay. <\/p>\n<p>They are going to get some glue on their hands. So you can keep a paper towel that is wet to wipe fingers and get the glue off.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/2-2025\/tissues-paper-hearts3.jpg\" alt=\"Stained Glass Hearts Craft For Valentine's Day - a simple wax paper craft for kids with tissue paper glue and tissue paper. - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/div>\n<p>You can see how a heart is has the glue covered and the whole heart is covered with the three colors.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/2-2025\/tissues-paper-hearts4.jpg\" alt=\"Stained Glass Hearts Craft For Valentine's Day - a simple wax paper craft for kids with tissue paper glue and tissue paper. - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/div>\n<h3>Step 3: Outline the Edge of the Heart with Glue<\/h3>\n<p>You are going to outline the edge of the heart with glue.
