The ingredients
Popcorn
Bodkin or thick needle
Thread or twine
Paint or glitter
PVA glue
Ribbon (optional)

Ask an adult to help you as scissors and needles are sharp!
Instructions
Step
1
Cook the popcorn according to the instructions - in the pan
or microwave oven and allow to cool overnight. Make
sure you get an adult to help you.
Step
2
Decorate the popcorn as you wish - the sky's the limit. Spray
some paint or use some PVA water-soluble glue and dip the popcorn
into glitter or sequins.
Step
3
When the paint is dry, take a bodkin or thick needle and thread
some twine or cotton and then thread
the popcorn garland together.
Step
4
The popcorn
will be more secure if you thread through the thickest part
of the popcorn. Make sure the ends are tied securely, and decorate
the ends with a ribbon bow.
Your
decorations are now ready to hang up around the house! Hang them
by the door frames or windows. You can even put them on your tree
or wrap them around a candle base.
