Tangle Name:-  Hearts Up & Down

Deconstructed by:- Nidhi Prakash

Tangle Marathon Category:- Hearts Tangles/ Border & Frames Tangle

I am so happy to share my first-ever deconstructed tangle. I remember it was around Valentine's Day a few years ago. I was working on a Valentine’s design when this pattern came to mind, and that’s how I deconstructed it!

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Draw two sets of parallel lines.

2. Draw a forward-tilted ‘S’ curve touching the top and bottom lines.

3. Draw a backward-tilted ‘S’ curve, creating a heart shape with an open bottom.

4. Draw a tiny circle/ orb at the bottom of the heart.

5. Draw tiny hearts, right-side up and upside down, between the outer parallel lines.

Following these simple steps, you can easily create a detailed and beautiful tangle pattern that adds an extra touch to your artwork.

Here are a few artwork examples for this pattern

I work on this tile in my Let's Tangle Together series at no 55.

This is such a versatile tangle, as I used this in my Christmas mandala and Valentine Mandala for borders.
