Materials & tools
- 6–8 large paper or thin-card shapes
- 1 metre light cord or strong ribbon
- Ruler, pencil and scissors
- Child-safe glue or tape
- 2 suitable removable hooks or existing fixings
- A protected work surface
Step-by-step instructions
- Measure the intended wall space and check that the decoration will not block a door, switch or walkway.
- Draw one large diya, leaf or circle template and use it for all the shapes. An adult handles cutting if children are helping.
- Arrange the pieces in a repeated colour pattern on the table before attaching them. Keep the spacing even and the overall weight light.
- Attach each shape to the cord with a folded paper tab or tape, checking both sides. Follow the adhesive’s drying instructions.
- Secure the two cord ends to suitable fixings and test gently. Keep clear of candles, hot surfaces and any pinched or exposed wires.
- After the celebration, remove carefully, wipe only as suitable for the material and store flat in a labelled dry folder.
Good to know
- Reuse card from clean packaging when it is strong enough and free of grease.
- Do not assume removable adhesive is suitable for every painted wall; check the label and a discreet area first.
