This year the British Summer hasn’t really gotten started, so to brighten up our days my daughter decided to make some lovely floral garlands for everyone! These garlands are super pretty and super simple! They use minimum materials so are really cheap to make too!
To make your garland you will need – coloured paper, straws, scissors and thread/wool.
Begin by cutting out some flower shapes from different coloured paper. My daughter finds it easier to draw her flower shapes first.
Next cut some straws into small pieces. My daughter used different coloured straws to add some colour to her garland!
Make a small hole in the centre of each flower and thread them and the straws onto your thread / wool. My daughter chose a pattern of flower, straw, flower, straw, but you can choose to place them however you like. Other shapes look really effective on the garland too!
Keep threading and leave a small gap at the end to tie your garland together!
My daughter loves making these pretty, bright garlands and they look super cute!
We hope you like our floral garlands! A simple craft for the kids to have a go at which will bring a little sunshine!
We hope you are all having a wonderful Wednesday!
