I have found a new favorite craft to create! This one takes a bit of time but is not difficult at all, and will provide a special touch to anywhere it is hung! Simply grab some tissue paper in the colors you desire, and get ready to cut, twist, and glue!
< Step 1: gather your materials- tissue paper in your desired colors, scissors, a ruler, & string or twine >
< Step 2: gather a few sheets of tissue paper and stack them on top of each other; fold them lengthwise (hot dog way instead of hamburger way); then cut this piece in half >
< Step 3: cut your strips in whatever width you desire, leaving about 1.5" at the top >
< Step 4: unfold your sheet to reveal the uncut center section >
< Step 5: roll each individual sheet at the middle/uncut section; the twist this rolled section on itself >
< Step 6: fold this rolled/twisted section in half to create your tassel >
< Step 7: arrange your tassels in the order you want them hun on your string; plan to space them about 2" apart on your string; use hot glue to secure each tassel to your string, and your DIY tassel garland in born! >
< This DIY tassel garland I made decorated the dessert bar at my best friend's wedding! >
This was so fun and whimsical in person. Just loved it!
