I've made paper garlands before, I have some over my bed and although my immediate thought was to make some to decorate the shop I had a secondary idea which was much more enjoyable.
Like any create person I have boxes and tins of *stuff*. Sweetie jars full of buttons, a box full of 4" pieces of lace and ribbon, a mix of seed beads and one off ribbon bows to name just a few. So I took out my scissors, cotton and a handfull from each of the above and set to work.
An hour or so later I had a delightful selection of recycled paper fancies, perfect for hair clips, brooches, ect..... The only trouble is I dont currently have a use for them, as I said to my sister who asked what they were for, "I only make them"
They would look sweet as table decorations come to think of it
