painted leaf tropical garland craft camp

This paper tropical garland is perfect for summer parties and special events. Or you can use it as home decor throughout the season. When you’re ready to start crafting, Emily’s video tutorial will walk you through this DIY project from start to finish. 

Along with learning how to assemble your own garland, you’ll learn some watercolor tips for adding more detail and texture to your tropical leaves. However, you can always use markers or colored pencils instead. Either way, this is a fun and easy way to experiment with adding color to your paper crafts.

If you’d like to create a more custom design, you can use whatever colors you prefer for this project. Or use what you have on hand!
