Today I've decided to post a little video I made of how to do this very easy and fun way to cheer up a place with this paper banners.
Here are some that I made recently as a test, are they nice??? Love the colors and how much they bright up the kitchen!
All you need to create these wonderful banners is: Tissue Paper (different colors), scissors, glue and string.
Here's my little "tutorial" video that will give you and idea of how to do some cuts.
I would suggest to make each banner and store them inside some heavy books so the get "flat" for a few days before you glue them and put them up.
There are lots of different cuts you can create, some give a look of a kaleidoscope. To make "kaleidoscope" looking ones instead of folding straight, do a triangle fold on each side and then cut all around.
My advice is to be creative and cut whichever way you want, I am sure as long as you don't cut the part to glue the string you can create very amazing designs, have fun!!!
Happy Weekend!!!
