Ever wondering what to do with all those scraps of paper? If the trash man went through my trash every week he would probably think that I shredded paper for a living! I usually have 1… sometimes 2 HUGE trash bags a week of nothing but scraps of paper. I've been thinking lately, there has to be something I can do with it… or at least some of it. I made little monster banners tonight for my sweet and handsome great-nephew (yes I am unfortunately old enough to have a “great” nephew) and I thought why not make some garland out of all the left over scraps. It was actually really easy. I didn't have to cut much more and pretty much just had to fold the pieces in half. Since the theme is Little Monster, I think the mix-matched sizes and shapes look great. I started off using a glue gun to glue them to the rope but quickly realized it was going to be a pain to get all the glue strings off so I switched to my Scotch tape glider. I put a little tape on the inside of the fold of each piece and wha-la. Super easy! The party is in a few weeks, I will post pics then of how we end up using it.
