When our daughter was around 8 years old, she invited over a few friends for the day to do some crafting with us. Since it was the beginning of November, we decided to make a Thanksgiving holiday garland.

This project can be done in one afternoon. If you are doing several of them at a time (group project), I suggest precutting all of the fabric strips ahead of time.

1 roll of sisal twine (2 or 3 ply for durability)
scraps of homespun fabrics
all-purpose craft glue (or glue gun with adult supervision)
acorns, twigs, pinecones, dried pods
scissors

Step 1: Measure out the length of sisal twine that you will need to make your garland. We usually do 3 to 4 feet. Cut it from the roll. Tie each end into a loop, this way when you hang it up, you can easily do it via the loops.

Step 2: Collect scraps of homespun or various fall print fabrics. We like to use 4 to 6 different prints and/or colors. You will want to cut out strips that measure approximately 1″ wide by 4″ long, or however long you would like. I usually cut out 50 to 75 of these strips when I make a garland.

Step 3: Lay your sisal twine out across the floor. Take your strips and lay them out in front of the sisal twine and alternate your colors and prints. Let the children sit on the floor to do this part of the project. You will want to tie all of the fabric strips onto the twine until your garland is filled up. There is no wrong or right way to do this. You can make your garland as full or as sparse as you would like.

Step 4: Take a nice walk outdoors and collect some fall theme nature items, such as: pinecones (small and medium-sized), acorns, dried pods, small twigs, pieces of bark, etc. Once you have your items collected, you will want to glue several of them onto your garland. I like to space them out about every 6″ or so. Let your project dry for a few hours to make sure all of the items are glued firmly into place.

Now that your garland has been made, you can decide where to hang it. I like seeing them hung on a mantle, across a doorway or up a staircase.

Optional: If you don’t want to use found nature objects to decorate your new garland, you can visit your local craft store and purchase fall or thanksgiving items to glue onto it.

Any metal when given art form, looks stunning, so if you are fascinated with metal craft, it’s no wonder. Brass craft, iron craft, silver craft, copper craft, bronze craft, wrought iron craft- whatever metal you choose for making a craft, it will be undoubtedly sharp. Beginners need not to worry about that. You’ll probably get a few minor cuts but nothing as serious that should deter you from metal crafting. Just follow certain safety rules and enjoy your new interest.

Always hold metal lightly. A tight grip can lead to cuts. Avoid running fingers along the raw edge of metal. Always keep the cutting tool deep in the cut as you move along. Don’t opt for short cuts and make burrs along the cut line. Initially wear gloves while working on metals. As you become more and more confident, start working without them because it gives a better feel leading to quality craft. Try to use a clamping device like a well-mounted vice to hold your piece while working on it. It might not be possible all the time but whenever possible, try to follow it. Also use a rag or a scrap leather piece to cushion the metal so that the point where vice holds the piece doesn’t get destroyed. Always use a brush or a piece of cardboard or some similar object to brush off the metal scraps. Don’t ever do it with your hands. Take your own time to finish off the work. Don’t rush otherwise, you might get injured. As you become used to, you’ll automatically do fast work. Always ensure proper and adequate lights in the work area. As most of the metals shine, it sometimes become difficult to see them clearly. Ensure proper vision from all the angels, right in the beginning. Always buy good quality tools. A pair of good tin snips, if possible, aviation snips are best for even for the beginners. They need as much safety as the experts. Even if good tools cost a little more, they are worth buying.

So, now when you are equipped with the basic safety rules, why not make a metal wall art and enjoy your first metal craft project!
