FESTIVE GARLAND
YOU WILL NEED:
- String or twine in contrasting colours
- Mini brown paper envelopes (approx 6 x 10cm)
- Metallic marker pens
- Mini wooden pegs
- Push pins or temporary hooks
1 Begin by creating the braided cord from which the advent envelopes hang. Plait together the contrasting string or twine. We’ve kept our colours simple with a white and brown combination.
2 Continue plaiting until you have a 240cm-long braid and cut into four equal lengths. Tie knots at the ends of each braid.
