I love diamonds, don’t you?!? I saw this little tutorial for cake toppers and was so incredibly smitten with the idea of glitter and diamond shapes, so this diamond diy garland was born! If you’ve followed this blog for a while you know that we love glitter tape and any excuse to party! To recreate this garland you’ll want to use a diamond shape pattern for your lines. You could hand draw this, but I found it easier and more precise to use an existing diamond shape and just print the shape onto vibrant colored card stock. I used gold glitter tape in two shades, did I mention our love for glitter tape yet? There are a few brands of glitter tape available, but I’m partial to the scrap-booking type as it is softer and more pliable than the traditional rigid glitter tape.
Diamond DIY Garland
Step 1: Print diamond shape onto color cardstock
Step 2: Cut out diamond shpes.
Step 3: Starting with the interior lines use glitter tape and trace lines by adhering tape to cardstock.
Step 4: Complete shape by placing tape on outermost lines, string on twine.
