Paper Garland made from Pink Flamingo Ephemera's Paper Circles

Here is my newest garland creation! I made it with paper circles from Pink Flamingo Ephemera--a lovely Etsy shop with a wide assortment of vintage craft supplies. The shop sells "paper ephemera for all your crafty projects", and I have certainly found some crafty uses for these vintage supplies.

I'll be sure to share all of the crafts I've made with the supplies pictured above, but I want to start with the garland...


Supplies:
sewing machine
basic sewing supplies (thread, scissors, bobbins...)
paper circles (These came from Pink Flamingo Ephemera. Aren't they gorgeous?!)

Directions:

Usually when I make a paper garland, I set the machine to the longest stitch length and decrease the presser foot pressure. These paper circles are durable enough to just use the normal settings for sewing a straight stitch. Begin feeding the circles through the machine and sewing through them one after another. Once your garland has reached its desired length pull the end threads out and snip them. (For a more detailed tutorial, you can click here.)

Hang your garland and enjoy! These are great for wreaths, party tables, picture frames, mantles... ANYWHERE in your home!

Happy crafting!
