DIY: Ornament Garlands

Ornament Garlands

Jazz up your space this season by using ornaments you already own, or even buying new ones!

Opting for shiny metallics can make for the perfect NYE decoration too!

With limited supplies needed and an opportunity to get thrifty, we had to share this simple DIY. This ornament garland is sure to add a festive accent to any room. Once you make it, you can reuse it year after year, or easily take it apart. Have you ever overbought when it comes to holiday decorations (we have!) — or maybe, you’ve accumulated various different ornaments over the years and don’t know how to pick and choose. Consider your problems solved! Get some crafty-self time in, or grab a friend — if you stick with more neutral colors, or let’s say, add a disco ball ornament or two, you can keep this garland up even after the tree is down and the ball drops!

SUPPLIES

• Various ornaments of your choice(50 ornaments will give you about 3-feet of garland)

• Twine

• Scissors

HOW TO MAKE IT

1. Measure a piece of twine to the desired length, plus enough room to tie off the ends, about 6 inches (on each side) should do it.

2. Grab a handful of ornaments and start threading! Secure the first ornament to the twine with a double knot around the cap.

3. Thread the twine through the first ornament and continue to bundle them tightly to give the garland fullness.

4. Once you’ve added all of your ornaments, secure the last ornament with a double knot around the cap.

5. Hang and admire!
