Let's Do This!
Step 1:
- Create a sewing needle by taping the start of the silver ribbon to a toothpick. Begin weaving the toothpick through the plain burlap ribbon. Instead of a straight line, weave in a zig zag pattern and space the stiches about two inches apart. Continue through all three rolls of burlap ribbon.
Step 2:
- On the black design burlap ribbon, take the middle stitch strand and begin to pull. This will cinch the burlap and create a ruffle pattern across the entire roll.
Step 3:
- Wrap the ruffled burlap around the plain burlap garland. Fasten them to one another with hot glue or silver ribbon on either end of the garland.
Step 4:
- Attach poster lights across the garland by carefully hot gluing the light into place.
Step 5:
- Mix equal parts gold glitter and silver glitter in the plastic cup. Spray adhesive onto the pinecones then cover in the glitter mix. Let dry.
Step 6:
- Glue pinecones into the garland.
