Easy DIY Metal Star Garland

You are here: Home / Budget-Friendly / Easy DIY Metal Star Garland

Hello Friends,

I created this star garland to coordinate with my patriotic decor for the 4th of July and summertime in general. But I think it could just as easily fit in with rustic Christmas decor. So if you’d like to create one for your home, grab some of those Dollar Tree cookie sheets and some twine and follow along as I show you how to easily create a metal star garland.

Supply list

  • Dollar Tree cookie sheets, one pack
  • twine
  • star paper punch from Amazon
  • scissors
  • nail and hammer (or other sharp instrument to poke holes in the stars)

Begin by cutting off the edges of one cookie sheet using scissors. Use a large star paper punch (yes it works on aluminum cookie sheets!) and create as many stars as desired for a garland.
If you don’t have a star paper punch, then you can trace a star pattern and cut each star individually with scissors.

Place a star onto a block of wood and poke a small hole using a nail and hammer. Repeat for each star. Tie each star onto a length of twine, spacing them approximately six inches apart.

Bless my STARS! I think this turned out SUPER cute, plus it was so EASY to create! I hope I’ve inspired you to create one for your home.
Use multiple garlands displayed together for a unique, FUN look!

Happy Crafting!

Pamela

Meet Pamela, the Creator

Pamela, Creator

Born and raised in rural, Missouri, I'm a wife of 30 years and mother to one adult son.

My interest in all things artsy-craftsy began as a young girl. If there was a craft kit for it, I've probably tried it: paint-by-number, latch-hooking rugs, candle-making, shrinky-dinks, string-art, etc. I loved them all! For many years I was able to express my creativity on-the-job as a florist, and love using silk florals in my home decorating projects.

I'm excited to share my crafting and home decorating ideas with you. I like finding that perfect thrift store item and crafting something new out of it, or giving that old piece of furniture a new life with a fresh coat of paint. I hope my projects will inspire you to get craftsy and create things to help decorate a home you love.

Happy Crafting!
