DIY - Create Your Own Bokeh
You will need :
One large aperture lens
One sheet of black paperboard
Cut and shape the sheet to make a fake lens hood. The Diameter is made so that it snugly fits on the lens
In the middle of the filter the wanted bokeh shape is cut out
I’m not sure how big a hole the shape can be. But you can check it right away by just looking through the viewfinder.
50mm lens @ F1.8 a 15mm heart gives a metering value equal to F3.2, so it can probably be a little bigge
Set your camera to its lowest aperture value (completely open).
