Make a Popcorn Garland
Making a homemade popcorn garland is a classic and nostalgic way to decorate your Christmas tree. You only need a needle, thread and a bowl of popcorn to get started.
Yield: 1 garland
Cost: $5
Equipment
- 1 needle plastic if kiddos are helping.
Materials
- 2-3 bags microwave popcorn or you can use stovetop. Just use plain popcorn, avoid excess butter and salt.
- 1 spool thread. I use white.
Instructions
- Pop your popcorn and pour into a bowl.
- You can measure a length of thread out, or just work off the spool. It's always an option to tie together threads of garland or to use various lengths around the tree.
- Cut off your length of thread, and add a knot to the end.
- Thread your needle by looping the thread through the hook and tying a knot.
- To string your popcorn, push the needle through the end of your piece of popcorn and pull it to the end of the thread.
- Repeat until the garland is your desired length.
- Knot the end of the thread.
