Creating a Jungle Decoration
1.
Material and Tools:
- Florist wire
- Crepe paper in green shades (or copy paper)
- Small wooden beads (with holes)
- Scissors, pliers
2.
- Cut off wire pieces 1-2 meters long with the pliers!
3.
- Thread a bead onto both ends of the wire and twist it tight.
- The beads protect your eyes while wrapping.
- Caution: Risk of injury from sharp wire ends!
4.
- Cut the crepe paper into desired leaf shapes!
5.
- Bundle several leaves together and wrap them with the wire!
6.
- Hang them under the ceiling, done!
Tips and Tricks:
- Think of a leaf shape or look around in nature!
- Work without a template – it's more creative.
- You can make long paper strips (liana effect) with a paper shredder.
- Wire bent in a stair-shape looks particularly real!
