return on creativity: party light garland

Create your own string of lights for your next party.

You will need: 

Eight 3" X 5" rectangles of fabric

Three yards of ribbon

Black Sharpie marker

Ink Pads

Starch

To Make:

1.  Iron fabric rectangles with starch to give them a little stiffness.

2.  Print the party light pattern below.

3.  Trace party light pattern onto each fabric rectangle using a black Sharpie marker.  Use a lightbox or a sunny window to make tracing easier.

4.  Brush the edge of a colored ink pad directly on the fabric to give each light a colored "glow".

5.  Sew lights to ribbon.  Start sewing two feet from the end of the ribbon.  Leave five inches between each light.

6.  Hang and enjoy your party!
