When we write cards through Love it Forward List, we’re doing more than sending mail — we’re sending a message of hope, care, and connection. And sometimes, the smallest details can make the biggest difference.
One of the sweetest ways to add an extra layer of love to your cards is by including a simple origami heart. These tiny folded treasures don’t require much time or special materials, but they leave a lasting impression.
💖 Why Origami Hearts Matter
A handmade touch, like an origami heart, says "I care" without using any words. It's a symbol of thoughtfulness — a small surprise tucked inside a card that makes someone feel extra special. Many of our recipients keep these hearts tucked in journals, taped to mirrors, or carried in pockets. They become quiet reminders that love is still all around them.
Especially for those going through hard times, these small gestures can lift the spirit in a way words sometimes can’t.
✂️ Easy, Beautiful, and Meaningful
You don’t need to be a crafting expert. If you can fold a napkin, you can fold a heart! All it takes is a square of paper and a little love.
We put together a step-by-step tutorial to walk you through how to make your own origami hearts.

Make one. Make ten. Tuck them inside your next card or write a tiny message on the heart itself. You might be surprised how meaningful this small act becomes.
