My kids woke up at 6 a.m. on Saturday. They were unbelievably excited for my son's birthday party that morning. All that energy had to be channeled somewhere, so I had them help me with Martha's Curled Paper Chain that I planned to use for decoration at the party. "Plan" is probably a misleading word, since I just decided to make it around 6:15 that morning. Before coffee.
It's basically a regular paper chain you used to make as a kid, but every alternating chain is curled to give it a festive look. My son cut, I curled and my daughter glued. It took us about an hour to make forty feet of chain. I suspended it from a tree that hung over the main table. It moved in the wind and made lots of satisfactory swishy sounds.
So cute and festive.
