Not Disney related, but am sure you crafty dibbers won’t mind ☺️

I want to make this, I am going to buy a polystyrene heart. Do you think this has just been wrapped in regular wool? Or should I get something different- I have no experience with wool 😬. What would you use?

I would use either double knit or Arun wool, it would also look nice if you used a ball of rustic string.

Huge thanks for your advice. Am going to take a look at the wool you have recommended. Thank you

I’d use garden twine look in home Bargins it’s much cheaper there
Just hot glue the start and every so often add some glue to keep it in place and it will take much more twine than you think

I’d also use garden twine or string rather than wool. It’ll be easier to work with than the wool.
