Glitter Star Garland – free cut file

I’ve made other star garlands in the past, but this is the first that I’m sharing here. I’ve got a fun video and photo tutorial for making this glitter star garland PLUS a free cut file to make it yourself. It’s pretty quick project so you can whip it up for your Christmas or New Years gathering. 

Glitter Star Garland – 

Ok, So be sure to watch the video for ALL the details, but I’ve also got some photos and tips for you here.

I’m excited to share this star garland AND a simple tutorial for adding some bling to your New Year’s toast!! My kids love these glitter glasses and I love some New Years Champagne. 

Here is what you need to make this special treat for your New Years Party…

• Plastic Champagne glasses
• Glitter {I used a dual size bottle}
• Champagne or Bubbly Apple Cider Bottle
• Mod Podge

Use a paint brush to spread the Mod Podge on part of your glass. Shake glitter over that section and then shake off the loose glitter. 

For the Bottle I tried to peel off the label, but then it was taking too much time so I just  glittered over it. It covered pretty well and I used big glitter flakes and fine glitter in two layers {see video}.

Alright! Now let’s make a star garland.  

You can find the Star Cut File here... It’s a zipped file so you will need to unzip it with your computer then use either the pdf or svg format of the star garland file. This should work with any sort of electronic cutting machine that you have. I used my Brother Scan N Cut, but the file will work with other machines as well. 

Upload the file to your cutting machine software and make the stars cut lines and the snowflakes draw lines. I used silver glitter cardstock for my stars. Place the glitter face down on the cutting mat. First, draw the snowflakes, then change to a blade and cut out the stars. 

I used different color markers to make various snowflakes on the back of the silver glitter. I cut 5 sheets of glitter cardstock to make my garland. 

Now comes the fun part!! Put a dull old needle in your sewing machine {or if you use a new one NEVER use it on fabric again – haha} for the cardstock I used s denim needle. 

Place the glitter side UP on your machine so it doesn’t get down inside and sew through one star, keep stitching on nothing for a couple inches, then sew another star… continue until all the stars are chained together. 

Now hang your garland and enjoy!! Here is your shiny new bottle and glasses for New Years and a fun star garland. You can turn the stars to the snowflake OR glitter side or show some of each.
