Recycled Carton Garland It Is quite a challenge

Hello my friends. I wanted to tell you a bit more about the colorful paper garland I made because it was a really fun project and I used some smart ideas

First, I used things that most people might just throw away. Instead of buying new paper, I looked for recycled cartons Yeah, like empty cereal boxes or other food boxes. It's awesome because using old boxes means we're being good to our Earth and not wasting things. It's like giving old stuff a new life

But here was the interesting part and a bit of a challenge: I needed specific colors for my garland – red, white, and blue, just like the colors on some flags. Now, not all boxes come with these colors, right? You don't always find a bright red box or a perfect white one. So, it was like a little treasure hunt I had to really look around and pick carefully. For example, that blue color? I actually got it from an Oreo cookie box, just like the one in the picture It was perfect for the blue triangles.

After finding the right colored boxes, I carefully cut out all the little triangles. Then, I just attached them to some butcher's twine, and tape then walla My colorful garland was ready. It was a simple idea, but it shows how we can make cool things and help our planet at the same time by reusing materials. It is a win for me.
