DIY Lunar Garland -

Hello

I could feel that I was getting bored of my workspace a little while ago, so I decided to make a garland to add some visual interest to my space again. I love the graphic look of the lunar cycle and so the good ol’ moon was the inspiration for this DIY.

You will need:

About 1-1,5 metres of string
White cardboard
Black paint
Brushes
Anything round the trace around
Little wooden pegs (or alternatively, tape)

p1030102 — First, draw out 8 circles on your piece of card, tracing around a round object to ensure uniformity.

p1030107 — Next, cut them out and sketch the phases of the moon in with pencil.

p1030113 — Paint the appropriate areas black.

p1030121 — Once dry, peg the moons onto the length of string.

(If you want it to be in the correct lunar order, it is: new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, third quarter, waning crescent)

p1030130 — Hang it up and admire your creation!

I love having mine in my workspace. It makes it interesting and fun.

Happy New Year, too!
