Advent Calendar Hearts

A 25 day advent calender that consists of hearts that hook onto each other to form a chain. The first heart is hung from the "lap" of an angel. The 25th Christmas heart supports a star. I printed this in red PLA for the hearts, white PLA for the angel, with painted gold halo and painted gold star (if you have gold PLA this could be used instead of paint). No supports needed. Fast to print. Fusion 360 file included in case you want to customize this.

You should print 25 hearts, of course. I didn't put numbers on them, but this could be done, or maybe print 4 of them in a different color. Or just count them each day.

The hearts have little tabs to lock them together. When hooking them, try to alternate front/back interlocks, otherwise the overall chain can become a little curved outward or inward.

I glued the first heart to the angel, and the last heart to the star, to make things easier, but these parts can hang together without glue.
