I love the look of tassel garland and a rainbow ribbon tassel garland is so versatile. Rainbow Ribbon Tassel Garland is a colorful, festive and simple garland to make. It can be used as a St. Patrick’s Day decoration, for parties that feature rainbow decor (i.e. unicorns, fairies, etc), as Spring decoration, or just to brighten up a room. The girls have requested that I make them one to hang in their window.
