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.
