DIY Home Sweet Home Paper Garland

3D Paper Projects· Home Decor· Paper Crafts· Paper Decorations

Today’s project features a sweet tiny paper house garland. I made mine in classic black and white to go with any season, but because the main component is a paper cutting die, you can choose any color palette you would like! It would be darling in pastels, or a wood-grain patterned paper. Really the options are endless.

Supplies needed to make your own paper house garland:

  • Momenta Small House Craft Die
  • Square Paper Punch
  • Round Hole Punch – 1/8 inch
  • Black Textured Cardstock
  • White Textured Cardstock
  • Black and White Baker’s Twine
  • Permanent Multi Liquid Adhesive

Begin by trimming the paper you want for your houses to 4″ wide. Run the die through your machine following the manufacturers instructions.

Pop out all of the tiny window parts of the cut die.

I was completely in love with the detail of this die!

Using a  1/8″ hole punch, create holes on both sides of the house shape where the roof is pointed.

Fold all of the edges of the die, and adhere. I chose to use Tombow Mono for my project. It is easy to control in small areas like this die, and it dries quickly.

Adhere all of your paper house dies together. Allow the glue to dry.

The die set comes with a small die to create a layered scalloped roof. I chose instead to just use a square punch to add black roofs to my tiny houses.

Adhere the cardstock squares and allow them to dry.

Decide how long you would like your garland to be, and cut your baker’s twine accordingly.

Then, using some packing tape, roll the end of the twine tightly with tape. Trim the tape.

This will make it easy to “string” the tiny houses on your garland. Make a knot in the twine.

Then string your first house. Make sure you face all of the doors of the houses the same direction. Tie a knot on the other side of the house. This will prevent your houses from sliding up and down the twine when you hang your garland.

Measure out some distance between your tiny houses. I used about 3″. Tie a knot, and string the next house.

Repeat for all your houses and then trim the excess twine, and knot the ends of the twine so it doesn’t unravel.

Choose a fun place to hang your home sweet home paper house garland!

I’ve already gotten a lot of compliments on mine. I am not sure what it is that is so appealing about miniature decor.

Definitely a fun addition to my paper crafting tools!
