Ribbon Garland-4th of July DIY
Make this easy craft for a fun decoration celebrating the 4th of July.
Servings: 1 garland
Cost: $10
Equipment
- 1 hole punch
- 1 pair of scissors
Ingredients
- 1 piece rope in desired length
- 3 rolls ribbon, in desired colors you can customize as much as you want
- 1 pack chipboard stars or you can cut out paper stars
- 1 roll twine to tie stars with
- 1 pack small Command Strips optional
Instructions
- Measure and cut a rope depending on where you want to use your garland. Add about a foot of length so you have plenty of room to tie, tape or tack it to where you're using it.
- Cut a ribbon strand about 12" long and drape the ribbon halfway over your rope (make it longer or shorter if you'd like).
- Take both strands of the ribbon together and tie your ribbon in a knot close to the rope.
- Repeat with each color in a pattern until your length of rope is as full as you would like, spacing the ribbons evenly.
- To add the stars, use a hole punch to punch a hole and then thread some twine or string though the hole so you can tie it and attach it to the rope in an even spacing.
- Tie loops into the ends of your garland rope and your garland is ready to hang!
