If you are in need some unique last minute decoration for your christmas tree or some table decoration for christmas dinner, here is some inspiration for you!

My sweet CTMember Pauline just used some of her paper scraps (mostly from Sausandesigns-Sing Spring) but you can use whatever you find in your stash..you could even use paper from old catalogues!

Now cut or punch out circles from your papers, Pauline also punched out some little stars inside of some of the paper circles. Let your imagination flow! Then get your or your friend’s (or neighbor’s) sewing machine and just sew all those circles together. If it seems to get complicated, just arrange them on a sheet of parchment paper and sew all together. Then, when you are done, just slowly tear off the parchment paper and voilà : you are owner of a cute little paper garland!

Now you can hang the garlands from your windows or decorate the tree or you can use them for a cute little dinner table decoration:
For this little tree you can or use a ready made tree from the thrift store or you decorate some styrofoam cones with glitter ribbons or whatever you can think of. I think you can find those cones in floral shops. When you decorated them, just wrap the paper garland around the tree. If you are doing more than one tree, it will make a wonderful and unique decoration for christmas dinner table.

Have fun creating!
