How to Make Paper Holiday Decorations that Delight
Step 1: Cut your paper into several ½ inch wide strips. Trim your paper strips to the following lengths: 6.5, 6, 5.5, and 5 inches. Cut 2 strips of each size.
Step 2: Punch a small hole in either end of the paper strips, approximately ½ inch from the end. Arranging your paper strips in a stack with the longest strips on the outside and the shortest in the middle, insert a brad through one end of the entire stack and fold back the legs to secure it.
Step 3: Curving each strip slightly so that the holes align, insert a brad through the holes at the other end. Add a string and hang your pretty paper ornament for all to see!
