HALLOWEEN DECOR FANS


These ARE A VERY CUTE LITTLE DECORATION I THOUGH
QUITE SIMPLE TO MAKE TOO.
I have seen thees on the sticks and on a string as well as a banner or garland. I have also seen them decorate a wreath either all the way around or as a small bunch at one side.SO play with it and use them for what ever you want

These were made with scrapbook paper, the large one has a coffee filter and the smaller ones have cupcake liners.

Items to Retrieve:
Scrap book paper
Holiday printed photos cut into circles
Circle cutter
Hot Glue
Skewers
Black Paint
Cup Cake liners
Coffee filters
Tinsel(optional)
Glitter (optional)

-First select some coordinating papers and liners select the size you wish yours to be any where from 8" - 2"
Start to fold the paper like a fan back and forth. The larger circles are made out of three separate fans and hot glued together until you achieve a perfect circle with good crinkle. the smaller ones can get away with 2 fans.
-Once you have glued them together paint and or glue in the wooden skewer with hot glue.
- Attach with glue the coffee filter, cup cake liner or another fanned piece of scrap book paper. You with have 3-4 layers depending on your style. ending with the printed holiday picture.


ADD SOME JAZZ: If you wish to embelish with tinsel or add glitter glue to the picture to add a little pizazz!

These are double sided so they are view all around but that is not necessary if they will not be view that way.

This could be done for any holiday just pick you papers and liners accordingly.
Could be a fun item to use at a party or in a plant r on top a present!
Could also be fun to put a photo of your child or friend as a gift.
