Hi friends, I am back today with another Create with Me monthly project. This month, you voted that we use book pages to create a project. I adore using book pages for all kinds of decorating and crafts, so this was a perfect challenge for me! Once I began scoping out what I was going to make, I realized that I had completed a book page project last spring which I never gave you a tutorial. It is so cute and one of my favorites, so instead of creating something new, I am sharing how to make a sweet Easter Garland that I think you will love!
{This post contains affiliate links, see full disclosure here.}
Supplies:
Book Pages
Card Stock- colors of your choice
Stencils or Silhouette Machine
Glue Stick
Hole Punch
Instructions:
1.Using book pages, I cut 4-inch circles. Then using your choice of card stock, cut out slightly smaller circles and glue them on top. Using stencil letters or a Silhouette Machine, cut out the letters for Easter on cream-colored cardstock.
2.Glue your letters on and then hole punch each circle for the ribbon. Tie the circles on a long piece of twine to create your garland.
3.If making the bunnies, cut our your bunny from book pages and glue onto a 4-inch circle. Add a small pompom tail and hole punch the circle and insert the ribbon. Add one bunny to the each end of your garland.
This is a project which I can easily adapt for other holidays/ seasons. Using book pages is a FREE and simple way to add interest in your decor. I can definitely see more book page garlands in my future.
Here is the finished garland hung on my Easter mantel last spring.
I think it’s the perfect addition to my Easter mantel.
