Here we go.

What You Need:

  1. Needle and Thread
  2. JAM WRAPPING PAPER, we used our Handmade Wrapping Paper Rolls but pick any! Is it Christmas time?  Use our Christmas Wrap for some cute Christmas decorations!
  3. Hole Puncher (Any size)
  4. Glue Stick

How to Make a 3D Paper Garland:

Step 1:

Punch 6 circles out of your wrapping paper of choice. 6 circles complete one 3D circle, so get ready for some hard punches ahead! How to Make a 3D Paper Garland, hole punch, circles

Step 2:

Fold your circles in half, having the design that you want folding inward. As you can see from the picture, I want the flowers to show so they are on the inside. Then start gluing! Quick Tip: Use a scrap piece of paper on the bottom of your gluing station. This way you can glue the whole surface, and not make a mess on the table!

Step 3:

Glue one side of each and attach them. When you're all done attaching the 6 circles, squeeze the last two together and unfold. You'll find an awesome 3D circle. Quick Tip: count the sides to make sure there are 6. When I was first starting I was noticing 5, and it was because they were still attached together from the extra glue. So don't fret, just see if there are double of any side.

Step 4:

Stick the needle on the top of the circle and push the thread in! This worked for me because I didn't do a huge garland. If you are trying to make a jumbo one, or even a longer one, I would suggest gluing the whole thread to one of the sides. And I would use a thicker thread like our baker's twine or regular twine!
