Decorations that sparkle are a must for NYE festivities. It would be fun (although somewhat blinding) to have an entire room of disco ball polka dots.

To make your own sparkly polka dot wall you’ll need:
- silver party curtain or garland (it’s easiest if the material is sewn together on the top)
- card stock
- scissors + rubber cement
- adhesive

Cut as many circles as you need from card stock. Starting from the bottom of the circle, brush on rubber cement and adhere a line of the silver shreds cut down to size. Layer and glue shreds until the circle is covered. Trim any excess and attach to wall with tape or sticky tack. Kick back and listen to some ABBA.

    “Decorations that sparkle are a must for NYE festivities.” A truer sentence has never been uttered.

    You know, I’ve been searching all over for that type of garland for another NYE project and it’s impossible to find! Either all garland is gone or it’s multicoloured. *sigh*

    Ah, I love these! When I was teaching, I covered one whole wall with polka dots that I cut out of contact paper. This idea is way better. :)
