Give your home a unique and elegant look this festive season with these unusual garlands.

Give your home a unique and elegant look this festive season with these unusual garlands.

Make sure you gather all your equipment together before starting.

Using a circle punch, cut out small circles from the sheet music. Continue cutting these out until you have a large amount, depending on how long you want your garland to be.

Place two circles on top of one another and, using a sewing machine threaded with red cotton, sew together your punched circles in a chain pattern, one after another. It will be much easier to control the paper if you set your sewing machine to a slow speed.

Once all the circles have been sewn together into a garland, bend the double layers of each disc so that they are folded open.

Hang in your home for a beautiful festive touch.
