gar·land ˈgärlənd/ noun 1.) a wreath of flowers and leaves, worn on the head or hung as a decoration. 2. A mark of honor or tribute; an accolade:
I am quite glad that definition includes using a garland as a decoration, because I am not sure how this garland would look wrapped around my head.
Using some silk fall leaves I bought at Michaels,
and some paper circles cut out from an old book (Cutting these by hand is much quicker than using a paper punch. Depending on the book pages, you can cut up to 15 pages at a time. I trace the bottom of a plastic cup and cut with scissors.),
and a twelve foot length of garden twine,
I made some fall garlands. I use a zig-zag stitch to attach the leaves and the paper circles to the twine.
A simple and quick way to add a little fall color to your mantle (or in my case no mantle), a bookshelf, or across a window or mirror.
This is really cute, Becky!
