Vintage YoT: Patriotic Crepe Paper Decorations

Just in time for the 4th… crepe paper is so fun, festive and affordable for party decorations. 

Yesterday on Tuesday-Patriotic Crepe Paper Decorations

Supplies: Red, white and blue crepe paper, sewing machine and Martha Stewart Fringe Scissors. These scissors make fringing anything so much easier. I have linked to the product on Amazon but they are also available and Michael's and with that 40% coupon, they are a great deal.

Fluff it up for maximum impact. Ideas: Decorate mantles, tables, twist and hang from light fixtures. The possibilities are endless. Tip: Doubled sided tape works great as an adhesive.

 Happy Crepe Papering!
