DIY Rag Tie Garland

If you’re looking to add a personal, crafty touch to your home decor, a DIY rag tie garland is an inexpensive and easy way to do so. 
Prep Time1 hour 30 minutes

Equipment

  • 1 Pair of Scissors or Rotary Cutter
  • 4 scraps of fabric
  • 1 string of choice I used jute

Materials

  • for the fabric I used about 1/4 yard in four different materials for a six foot garland

Instructions

  • Select your fabric and cut it into strips. I did 1 inch wide and 6 inches long.
  • Measure where you want to hang the garland and make sure the string is the correct size.
  • Start tying each fabric strip onto the string. To do this, fold the fabric in half over the string and tie a simple knot.
  • Once you have finished tying all the strips, give the garland a final look-over. Trim any uneven edges or excess fabric to create a uniform, neat appearance. Hang it up and enjoy!
