Since I have been busy creating hand made art journals, I now have TONS of leftover strips of paper scraps and I came up with a fun way to put those scraps to use- creating paper ornaments!
I can remember creating paper ornaments from strips of construction paper back in elementary school and I love the idea of using this concept but with unique paper.
To start I grabbed 4-5 strips of paper.
I bent the paper into a circle and using hot glue attached both ends.
Next, I bent another strip of paper over the top of the first and continued bending and gluing strips of paper until I formed a ball.
All those paper balls can be used for ornaments or even a garland!
