Paper cuttings - Christmas heart
The weaved Christmas heart is thought of as the world’s first and is cut and weaved by H.C. Andersen.
It is not known for certain whether it was a Christmas decoration meant to hang on the Christmas tree, as it was without a handle. It is made with two strands and is made of yellow and green paper. The Christmas heart measure 5 cm x 5 cm and is made in the 1860s.
Since then, the weaved Christmas heart has been a permanent component of the Christmas decorations on many people’s Christmas trees, and it continues to be so.
