This Saturday we are having a party at our house, our first party in the house. It's both a housewarming and a birthday party for me! So this week I have been playing around and making some decorations. Here are some pics of the paper garlands that I've been making. I got 2 old music books from a second hand shop, $2 each and used a circular cutter to cut out perfect circles. I also found some pre-cut circles of vintage atlases at the Glen Waverley Antique Bazar, which I included with some music circles and brown paper.
I used a neon pink thread. I love a bit of neon these days!
I thought I would try making more 3-D garlands which was simply sewing 5 layers of paper together. You then just fold them out to make a more bouffant look.
A mixture of different papers...
Vintage atlases ...
I'm not sure how I will hang them at the party, but for now they are hung up around the house on random doors and chairs...
They look fab!!
