How to make a garland tassel with your own hands?

A variety of design and design products is very large. But along with the classic solutions garland tassel is gaining more and more popularity.

This product is not so difficult, and can even be made independently.

Corrugated paper

Such material is considered the best option because it does not require the use of glue and helps to form the desired object in just a minute. First you need to fold a sheet of paper into two equal parts, cut it into thin strips. Two or three fragments fold (focusing on the target thickness), then tightly folded from the center to the periphery.

Once the curl is over, a loop should appear. - no additional effort is required, everything will happen by itself.Next, this loop is left alone, and the workpiece as a whole is bent into 2 equal parts, continuing to twist them together.

All that remains to be done is to gently stretch the “tail” that has appeared, achieving the splendor of the resulting tape.

From plastic bags

With all the advantages of corrugated paper, it is unwise to use it to decorate open verandas and terraces. A strong wind or raindrops will quickly make such a product unusable. Therefore it is worthwhile to find out how best to make a garland of polyethylene with a tassle.

This material is much better resistant to moisture. In addition, it is relatively inexpensive. Color bags of medium size are best suited for work.

You need to act like this:

  • taking the package, lay it on a flat table;
  • cut the handle (if any), aligning the workpiece;
  • in the same way carefully cut off the bottom of the package;
  • the resulting square piece of polyethylene is smoothed and folded in half up to 3 times (if large bags are used, you will have to do it 4 or 5 times);
  • make a half fold in length, if necessary, trim the edges again;
  • on the bend hold the workpiece with a finger, limiting the length of the cut strip with the same finger;
  • cutting all the folded polyethylene on the right and on the left, chop up what turned out into identical tracks;
  • twist the center, remaining uncut, and do it tightly, but without excessive effort;
  • once again folded in half, holding the twist tight;
  • they bind him with the strip that was originally the bottom.

But this is only an element of the finished design. To collect a garland of tassel, you have to use up to 90 twists. If you take 1 large package, it will allow you to make 2 basic elements. Such work will surely bring joy to all lovers of their own to decorate their homes for the holiday.

What is important, it is well suited for children.

Of brushes

There is an alternative. Paper is taken again (rectangular sheet), it is folded in the middle on a long face. Fold the sheet twice from the wide side and unfold it vertically. When the sheets are folded, they are cut into elongated strips, but not completely. Having unfolded the paper, cut it in half to get 4 sheets.

Each fragment is laid out in length and twisted in the middle. The brush is fastened with glue to make a loop. Having made the necessary number of brushes, they are strung on a cord. This work on the manufacture of garlands completed.

It can be used for balloons, for decorating the area allocated for a photo session.

Use with balloons

Such tapes in the form of a spiral very well manifest themselves at various holidays. They are attached to large balloons filled with helium. It is very good if a text or image is printed on the ball, reflecting the essence of the celebration. The width of the tape can be chosen arbitrarily, but we must remember that they can stick to each other if electrically charged. Usually, you can complete all the necessary work in a few hours.
