Elmo and Abby Circle Garland

This garland is easy to make and has a big impact when hung in a grouping.  This version uses monofilament, so no sewing machine required.  I used red, pink, purple and aqua to represent the colors of Elmo and Abby. 

You will need:
Paper in your choice of colors (I used regular text weight paper, cardstock works as well)
Circle punch (or any shape cutter you prefer, I used a 2.5" and 1.5" inch circle punch)
Illuison Cord/Monofilament
Scissors
Double sided tape 

Cut the monofilament to the desired length. Tape the monofilament to a table or floor at both ends.  Place one circle undernearth the monofilament, secure with double sided tape (2-3 pieces per circle will do the trick).  Place the same color circle on top and press down to stick.  I left space in between the circles or you could place them right next to one another if you wished.  This garland can be hung from the ceiling, around windows/doors, or across tables.
