Adding Handmade Touches to your Home

Creating something as simple as a scalloped garland can add a layer of a handmade touch that makes any room so inviting! A unique space that has layers of interest can add to a home’s collected feel. Plus, no one can tell that this craft was done with my toddler while blasting Christmas music! After this Christmas season is over, I will be swaging this beauty in his room and we will be able to remember all the fun that was had making it!

Supplies for this Easy Cottage Scallop Garland

  • Twine
  • Paper
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Hot Glue Sticks
  • Scissors

Most households have these common supplies but I have linked the most inexpensive products I could find across the internet. Instead of a hot glue gun, regular liquid glue could always be used but might just add a few minutes to this fun craft!

Variations of this Easy Cottage Scallop Garland

This scallop garland could be done just as I will be showing here, there are also so many variations to have fun with! Using felt would add a cozy touch, going with a coordinated color theme, or even switching up the playful shape! Endless creative possibilities!

Let’s create!

First, take a piece of paper and fold it in half horizontally.

Next open the paper and fold again horizontally toward the center crease made previously.

Grab some scissors and cut a semi circle along the crease.
