Gather Your Supplies For The Fall Bead Garland And Pumpkin Tag
- Scrapbook Paper
- Mod Podge and a foam brush
- Micro Sander
- Scissors
- Wood Beads
- Ink pad (I used brown)
- Ribbon For Tassel
- Twine for stringing beads
Steps To Creating Your Garland And Tag
String Your Beads
Cut approximately two feet of twine and begin sliding your beads onto the twine. (Different project – same process!)
Create A Tassel
The ribbon I have linked and love to use are precut lengths. Pull out 10 pieces and fold in half. Wrap and tie another ribbon about half an inch from the top. This creates a loop in order to tie your twine onto the ribbon tassel.
Make Pumpkin Tag
Trace the pumpkin on the back of your scrapbook paper and cut out. Using a foam brush spread Mod Podge on your pumpkin and attach scrapbook paper. When dry, sand the edges of the pumpkins to get a smooth edge and run an ink pad along the edges for shadow and add the perfect amount of distressing.
Attach Pumpkin Tag
Using the twine from your beaded string attach with a knot the pumpkin shape through the hole provided. You now have a pumpkin tag on one end and a fabulous ribbon tassel on the other.
