DIY Spiraled Yarn Decorations

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 'Two Shades of Pink' Garland is a Fun Craft Project

— August 13, 2012 — Art & Design
The'Two Shades of Pink' garland is a fun craft project that is ideal for any occasion. When hosting a party, costs can add up when it comes to prepping everything from the food down to the decorations. This simple do-it-yourself project is a fashionable way to spruce up any room.

The materials needed to put these together include card stock, a glue gun, scissors, colorful yarn and a circle punch. You simply twirl the yarn and glue it onto some card stock in a swirled design. The nice thing about this project is that it is versatile, as the colors can be coordinated to the event or holiday. For example, for Halloween black and orange could be incorporated, and for Christmas green and red could be used.

Projects such as this one from the Two Shades of Pink blog proves that you don't have to spend a lot to get decent results.
