How To Make Custom Twist Ties
Supplies:
- Scraps of Patterned Paper
- Double-sided tape
- 26-gauge wire
- Clear Packing Tape (optional)
1. Cut paper strips or use washi tape!
2. Apply a line of double sided tape to the back of the paper.
3. Apply a length of wire along the center of the tape.
4. Place the remaining paper over the wire and tape, and press down to secure. Cover with packing tape to protect the paper and add extra strength if you think it needs it or will be around water, ice, etc. Cut the twist ties to the length and width you need.
🧁TIP: You can make this really fast by using washi tape! Lay a piece of wire between to pieces of tape and presto!
