Paper decor for walls.
- Pom poms... They are made not only from threads, but also from paper. True, such options are often combined (pom-poms can consist of a fragment of a plastic bottle). And often the basis for them is a regular toilet paper roll. The decor paper itself is cut into tinsel and fixed at the bottom of the sleeve. The sleeve is wrapped in other paper, and such pom-pom suspensions are obtained. By the way, you can use corrugated paper.
- Butterflies... They can be cut from double-sided colored paper using patterns. They are attached to the wall using double-sided tape or in any other convenient way. You can make a panel of paper butterflies right on the wall, which does not require framing.

- Module... From the same origami cranes, you can make a suspended flat module, fix it on the cornice, and the cranes themselves will go down to the window. Also quite simple yet inspiring construction.
- Coated paper balls. An excellent birthday decor can be obtained in this way: cut balloons from coated colored glossy paper, stick them on the window, glue real strings to them.If the side is sunny, ultraviolet light will illuminate the paper, and it will literally begin to glow. A child who wakes up in the morning on his birthday will sincerely rejoice at such beauty on the window.

They are fixed on the window cornice, hang down and create a thick, beautiful "hairstyle" of the window. It is in this visual way that you can meet the beginning of summer, and this technique is also suitable for birthday decor.
- Box with birds... Wooden skewers with paper characters work great here too. You need to buy a wooden plant box, long and narrow. It can be filled with real earth.
