What holiday is complete without beautiful and bright themed garlands? But it makes no sense to buy them every year, and then look for free boxes, drawers and storage cabinets. Homemade jewelry is perfect for your mood and festive decoration. Therefore, we have collected 12 easy DIY Christmas garland ideas!
1. Christmas chains
The simplest Christmas garland in the form of a chain can be made from thin strips of colored paper. It is enough to glue them together by threading the ring into the ring. Even a child can handle it!
2. Christmas garland of Christmas trees
Cut the fabric or paper into strips, not cutting slightly to the end of the sheet. Twist each leaf in the middle and gather in a herringbone bun, add festive decor and arrange a garland.
3. Christmas bulbs
To make a garland in the form of Christmas bulbs, cut thin colored strips and wider monochrome strips for the base. Gather each colored strip into a loop, shape into a light bulb, and wrap around the top.
4. Glowing garland
For fancy caps, cut wide strips of paper onto a luminous garland, fold them like an accordion and shape them as shown in the diagram. Fix the ball-shaped structure with glue on one side, and insert the bulbs.
5. Christmas garland of knots
For such a simple, quick and beautiful decoration, you will need scraps of fabric or a lot of colored ribbons. Just cut them and tie them in a knot along the base thread, or add a luminous garland like this.
6. Paper beads
Cut the colored paper into circles or ovals of the same size - preferably four colors. Glue each bead from four of these parts, and immediately insert a thread into the middle.
7. Paper balls
Cut the paper into thin strips - four pieces per ball. They can be solid or colored - whatever you like. Fold the strips in the middle towards each other in the form of a star and collect the ball.
8. Faceted garland
Cut out colored blanks according to the scheme and fold each of them into a volumetric pyramid. Pull the thread through the tops and glue in two halves together using the special tabs.
9. Garland of muffin molds
Multicolored molds for sweets and muffins are almost a ready-made Christmas garland. Fold each into a triangle, from three triangles, collect a Christmas tree and stretch a thread.
10. Christmas balloon garland
If you don't know how else to decorate your apartment, use balloons. Tie a long strong thread to each and decorate it with colored paper bulbs fastened with glue or electrical tape.
11. Simple garland of white paper
From plain white paper, collect the Christmas trees with an accordion and make balls according to the scheme in the picture. Make holes with a hole punch and pull a thick textured thread through them. A light, but very beautiful Christmas garland is ready!
12. Volumetric New Year's snowflakes
Cut colored paper into thin strips, take six of them and bind them into an openwork snowflake. Collect a series of multi-colored or white snowflakes into a garland.
