DIY/// A Party Garland Thats Fit for a Boy


You need:
 Fabric (size depends on how much garland you want)
 Yarn
 Rotary cutter
 Rotary mat

Instructions:
Cut your fabric into strips approx. 1-2 in. x 10-12 in. (You don't need to worry about them being perfect.) Next, take one strip and fold it over the yarn as shown in photo 3. Tie a knot. Repeat in 6 in. intervals.







I'm making several garlands like this with assorted solids and prints and stringing them with crepe paper streamer. I'll share photos after Ethum's party next weekend!
I've made a tradition of making handmade decorations for each of his birthday parties.
Here's bad photo  year one + two:
