How to make a paper chain
Nothing says “Kids Live Here” better than a paper chain garland around your Christmas tree. (Except maybe sticky jelly fingerprints on your walls.) If you’ve never had the pleasure of creating one of these—either as a child or as a parent—this is your year! Not only do we have super simple instructions for how to make a paper chain, we also have downloadable printables you can use to create this family-friendly Christmas craft.

Jeanne Field enjoys quilting, killer sudoku and washi-tape hoarding in her free time—which she has more of now that her 2 kids are in college. She hopes to live 1,000 or so more years so she can make ALL the quilts.
