Halloween paper garland

To make your own DIY Halloween paper garland, start by collecting your supplies. You will need scrapbook and ghost or wood pumpkin stencils. Once you have chosen the shapes that you like, you will need to use a ruler and pencil for marking every 1.5 inches. Then, fold your paper according to the pencil marks. The end result should look like the image below. This process can be repeated to create a longer garland.

Creating a DIY Halloween paper garland is easy and fun. You'll need colored construction paper and scissors. You can create up to 16 characters from paper and then hang them on your tree. To hang your garland, you can also make upcycled flower pots and Halloween characters.

Valentine's Day paper garland

To make a Valentine's Day paper garland, cut strips of newspaper into hearts shapes. You will need to cut strips that are one and a quarter inches wide by one and a 1/2 inches in length. Then, use a hole punch to punch four holes in each strip. String through each hole and cut to your desired length.

Take equal lengths of card stock and cut them into strips. To make a heart, glue them together. Continue the process until you have a second heart. Loop the second strip through the first one. You now have a stunning paper heart garland. This is great for decorating entryways or windows. You can make several heart-shaped paper chains, and you can hang them in different places.

This simple paper craft can be used in any room of your home and is both elegant and sophisticated. It's also an excellent project for a class. You must allow enough time to finish the project. Hot glue isn't the best choice for kids, so make sure you get an adult to help you with this step.
