Bakers Twine Tutorial

 

I love the look of bakers twine!  It is such a simple way to dress up a package!  The only problem is, I am cheap, and I don't want to splurge on a whole entire spool of baker's twine for one color.  So here is a solution to my problem:   Make my own! 

It is SO easy, and it only takes about 5-10 minutes to make a lot!

Materials:

Spool of white cotton string.
Ruler
Colored markers
Tape
Scissors

 

Step 1:

Tape the end of the cotton string to the top of the ruler.

Step 2:

Wrap the ruler with the cotton string making sure to keep the string close together.

Step 3:
color stripes on the sting.

Step 4:

Wrap a package with your pretty baker's twine!
