This is exactly what applies to garlands made of crepe paper: they are quick and easy to manufacture and ensure the perfect party mood - especially the upcoming carnival. So if you have planned your own carnival party or would like to support someone in the preparations, you can make one or the other crepe paper garland in no time, preferably even in different bright colors.
What you need for the carnival ideas for carnival
The carnival garlands are made the fastest if they use crepe tapes that they don't have to cut extra. These are available in many colors, includingOn Amazon. However, if you want to make patterned crepe paper garland, you will find the material in the form of cutting paper that you can cut into strips yourself. The following ideas are also ideally suited as birthday garlands and for other parties.
Tinker a fringed crepe paper garland-probably the easiest idea
Everything you have to do for such a party garland is to cut the tape into the desired length (if necessary) and then cut lengthways on both sides.
- Put the tape together several times. In this way, cut in several segments at the same time, which takes significantly less time than when they spread and cut the crepe tape.
- Be careful not to cut the paper through, but to spare the middle area - cut in a third, leave a third completely and cut the third third, as well, so to speak.
- If you now carefully pull the paper tape apart, you have a finished fringe garland.

Fluffy garland made of crepe paper
If you want to make this crepe paper garland, you still need a needle and thread. Don't worry, you don't have to sew in the actual sense. It's just about fixing the folded paper layers.
- Prepare a needle with a thread. Tie a knot into the end of the thread.
- Cut the paper tape on both sides, as described in the instructions.
- Take an end and roll it up a few times.
- Sting the needle through the layers of paper with the needle. You do not need to pull the thread completely for the time being. Instead:
- Lift the paper, fold it and put it on the needle (see video).
- This is how you keep going until you arrive at the end of the band. If at some point the length of the needle should no longer be enough, just pull it out to the knot of the thread and continue.
- If a band is too short for you, you can simply continue directly with a second volume.
- Also tie a knot at the other end so that the paper layers remain folded. Also tighten the cord for this purpose.

Tassel for a party garland
You can make tassures from a sheet of crepe paper, which you then use as a trailer for a garland. This is how it is done:
- Spread out two leaves of crepe paper and put them together.
- Fold both to the side in the middle.
- Cut the four layers preserved along the fold. In this way, make four tassels with one time.
- Fold the right side to the left two more times so you get a strip.
- You can fold the strip from top to bottom.
- Measure about 7 cm from the fold and mark it with a line. That is the cutting limit.
- From the open side, only cut the paper into thin strips up to marking to get fringes.
- Spread the paper and roll each of the elements lengthways. The result is long roles with fringes at the ends.
- Then form a ring on the unit not cut and twist the two ends with each other.
- You can then thread cord through the ring to create a garland.

Cut the garlands with the children
You can also simply cut crepe tapes into smaller pieces, all as long as possible. The finished stripes place around the cord or a beautiful band and stick the ends together. More is not necessary either. Children can also imitate these instructions for a DIY party garland.
