Step by Step Valentine’s Day Lock and Key Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Draw a Heart
Start by drawing a big heart shape. This will be the main body of the lock.
Step 2 – Add the Lock Handle
Draw two curved lines on top of the heart to create the lock’s handle.
Step 3 – Add the Keyhole Heart
Inside the big heart, draw a smaller heart. This is the keyhole in the center of the lock.
Step 4 – Draw the Key Head
Next to the lock, draw a small heart on top of a rectangle. This will form the key’s head.
Step 5 – Add the Key Body and Teeth
Extend a long rectangle downward from the key head. Then add a notch or zig-zag at the bottom to create the teeth of the key.
Step 6 – Make It Cute
To finish, draw two big circles for eyes and a small smiling mouth on both the lock and the key. This gives them a friendly, adorable expression.
