About this time of the holiday season I find myself surrounded by piles, rolls, and heaps of discarded wrapping paper. I save the cast offs in the hopes that the perfect little bauble box might find it’s way into my to-be-wrapped pile–a pile which seems to multiply at night while the sugarplums are dancing merrily in my slumber. Somehow that little box never materializes, and I’m left to ponder whether to fetch the recycling bin or shove the scraps back into the holiday wrapping storage bin. But today, right here in my inbox, is a nifty little craft project that uses recycled holiday paper, or any paper for that matter, for a simple, stylish and festive decor idea. It comes from Kelly Wilkinson who is a contributor at The Washington Post (which publishes one of my favorite regional home and garden sections). Check out Kelly’s clever crafty blog at makegrowgather.com, and read on to learn how to make this holiday garland step-by-step.
