Easy Holiday Garland Tutorial - I saw something similar in a Martha Stewart magazine one year and she used circle stickers - I thought I could do that with all the fun Christmas patterned paper I have!

Step One: punch a bunch of circles out of patterned paper.

Step Two: Locate some string or baker's twine.

Step Three: Put a dot of adhesive into the middle of the circle (I used glossy accents)

Step Four: Put the string through the glue

Variation 1: Cut a strip 1"x2" and fold in half. Put the glue towards the bottom so that the flag will slide on the string
