Having a party? Looking for some great DIY Party Decorations? You need a rainbow garland decoration! They are fun to make and inexpensive enough that you can make TONS. Get your kids involved and it can be a fun craft as well.
This pipe cleaner garland is:
- cheap (dollar store, yo)
- fast (5 minutes!)
- easy (see below)
Here’s how I made it!
Step 1
Grab a handful of pipe cleaners. I used 10 (two of each colour).
Step 2
Fold them all in half.
Step 3
Twist them all together at the bottom.
Step 4
Curl all the straight bits around your finger. Once you’ve done them all, you’ll have a ball shape.
Step 5
Flip the ball over and find the loops you twisted. Poke some ribbon through one of the loops.
Step 6
Repeat until you have a garland full of curly pipe cleaner fun. To prevent your ribbon from fraying, seal the ends by holding them close to a lighter flame.
Step 7
Sit back and enjoy your awesome new pipe cleaner garland. Pretend it was hard so that people will be impressed!
