Design a creative school enrollment party: Crafting instructions for individual decorations

In today's post, we'll show you how you can easily make place cards, a garland and decorative plugs decorations yourself. These instructions are particularly suitable for beginners and guarantee lots of fun!

Prepare the templates

Before you start crafting, you should print out the templates. These are important for cutting out the required shapes perfectly. Cut out the templates neatly after printing them out.

Making place cards

Start with the place cards. First cut out rectangles from craft cardboard sheet . Double the height of the finished place card as it will be folded once in the middle. Design a name tag to stick on the front. You can choose simple shapes or creative designs such as wave shapes. For the decoration, you can use scattered letters and numbers or your own drawings. Alternatively, you can write the name directly on the card using hand lettering. Another highlight can be a small element from craft cardboard sheet, such as a pen or apple.

Small decorative pins

For the decorative plugs , cut long rectangles from craft cardboard sheet and attach them around a toothpick or skewer. Sharpen the ends or leave them straight. Alternatively, you can cut out the template of a school cone, transfer it to cardboard and stick it onto a skewer. Embellish the finished plugs with letters, numbers or hand-painted elements. These plugs are perfect for decorating the school buffet.

Design the pennant chain

For the pennant chain, transfer the large pennant template several times onto the craft cardboard sheet and cut it out. Punch out the holes for the hangers. Decorate the pennants with checkered triangles or label them with words such as "1st day of school". Now thread the finished pennants onto a ribbon. If necessary, fix them with adhesive tape, to prevent them from slipping.

Now the bunting is finished and ready for the big day!
