DIY: Magazine Ornaments

  Hello my friends! I am back again with another easy DIY!
"Recycle some of the old magazines and catalogs that clutter
your shelves into a one-of-a-kind, out-of-the-ordinary holiday ornament." (Wasinger 118) So for today, I will be showing you how to make these Magazine ornaments which you can use for decor.



MATERIALS YOU WILL NEED:

-Stapler
-Magazines
-Scissors
-Thread/Wire



STEP 1:

Cut about 10-20 medium sized circles. You can use any circular
shaped item as a template.

   

                                                                                                      

STEP 2:

After you have gathered all your circles, stack them in one single pile.
Fold the very first circle of the pile in half, then unfold. Position your
stapler in the middle of the fold. One staple in the middle should pin
all circles together.





STEP 3:

Fan out and fold each piece of layered paper as you go until you have
a symmetrical sphere. In order to hang this art up, you will need to poke
a hole through all the layers at the top of the stack and hang with thread or wire.

And that is the end of it! Do you see how simple and easy that was?! All of these items can be found in your recycle bin. Would you guys like to see more of simple or challenging DIYs?
