Five Upcycled Autumn Buntings and Garlands

upcycled cardboard leaf garlandI like to upcycle pretty cardboard and cardstock into holiday garlands. Colorful crayon boxes and magazine covers are graphically quite interesting when cut into simple, seasonal shapes, and when the holiday is over, I take just as much satisfaction in tossing my garland back into the recycling as I did rescuing it from the recycling in the first place.

I'm a writer, crafter, Zombie Preparedness Planner, and homeschooling momma of two kids who will hopefully someday transition into using their genius for good, not the evil machinations and mess-making in which they currently indulge. I'm interested in recycling and nature crafts, food security, STEM education, and the DIY lifestyle, however it's manifested--making myself some underwear out of T-shirts? Done it. Teaching myself guitar? Doing it right now.

Visit my blog Craft Knife for a peek at our very weird handmade homeschool life, and my etsy shop Pumpkin+Bear for a truly odd number of rainbow-themed beeswax pretties.
