If you would like to make your own right-way-up version of my upside down (oops!) rainbow hearts window display, instructions follow in the thread below

1) Most important tip first: rubbing alcohol (isopropanol) removes glue or sticky tape residue from glass really easily! 
Vinegar, WD40 and nail varnish remover also work.

2) You will need several squares of paper (I used 12 squares of each colour to do two windows).
You can use coloured origami paper, e.g.: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00B9DR456/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_Y5XLEb7KKPWVN
Or simply use squares of white printer paper and colour the hearts in with coloured pencils or pens afterwards

3) Next, fold your hearts! Follow the steps in this video, or use the diagram instructions in the next tweet:
These instructions from Fumiaki Shingu’s website are nice and clear: https://en.origami-club.com/valentine/easyheart/zu.html
4) You can make hearts of different sizes. Cut squares into four to make tiny hearts, and use 3/4 sized squares for medium-sized hearts.
5) Finally, put up your display! I used a glue gun to stick my hearts up, but glue stick or sticky tape will work too.
Have fun and do post pics of your rainbow heart windows!
