Brightly colored crepe paper cut into fringe strips puts a cheery spin on holiday tradition, and creates an exciting focal point for any occasion.
Step 1
Cut Crepe Paper
Cut strips of crepe paper about 1-1/2" to 2” wide and about 3’ long.
Step 2
Stretch Crepe Paper
Stretch out the crepe paper to lengthen it.
Step 3
Fold Crepe Paper
Fold it several times in half so that you can cut many layers at the same time.
Step 4
Cut Fringes
Make incisions into the crepe paper about every 1/4” or so.
Step 5
Attach Fringed Paper
Using the glue gun is the fastest way to attach the paper to the box. Start with the bottom layer and work around the box.

Add Layers
Add on the next layer. These are spaced every 1/2” or so.
Step 7
Add More Color
For variety, add on a different color. Have fun with the color combinations.
Step 8
