Gold Geometric Heart DIY Cake Topper

Cake & Candy· Party Decorations· Valentine's Day· Wedding & Bridal Shower Decorations

My love of gold and geometric shapes knows no bounds. So, it was only natural that for the big day of LOVE I would combine two of my loves to create this gold geometric heart DIY cake topper. And the fact that it goes hand in hand with cake doesn’t hurt either! This heart topper is perfect for celebrating Valentine’s Day and would even look super cute atop a wedding cake. All you need are a few supplies and a little time and you’re golden.

  • Brass Jewelry Wire in 16 gauge
  • Brass Jewelry Wire in 26 gauge
  • Jewelry Pliers and Wire Cutters

diy-cake-topper-heart-consumer-crafts-unleashed-5Begin by taking your 16 gauge wire and your pliers and bending the wire into a geometric heart shape. It’s easiest if you cut a length of wire (about 16″ should work) and bend it in the middle to create the top point of the heart. Then use your pliers to bend your wire to create your heart shape. At the end twist the wire around itself to create a 2-3″ long tail. This will be the part that you insert into the cake.

I found it easiest to cut a few feet of wire off of the roll and use that piece to wrap the heart. Then, when that piece was done, cut another piece and continue until it was wrapped to create a nice geometric look.

Or add a necklace chain to a smaller version for a cute Valentine’s Day pendant necklace! Make sure to finish off your Valentine’s Day crafting with this pretty painted DIY wood heart.
