Christmas Countdown Fabric Chain

It is never too early to start planning holiday decor. Especially when it involves a countdown chain to Christmas Day.

Grab your Christmas fabric scraps and get ready to cut and repeat! Make and extra long fabric chain to decorate a mantel or staircase, or keep the chain limited to 24 links for the perfect countdown to Christmas.

In lieu of the traditional paper chain, this tutorial uses up those fabric scraps and ensures you can use it year after year. The perfect way to reduce waste! Of course, with endless fabric scraps you can make other fabric chains for holiday decor, birthday party garland, or countdown chains for any special celebration.

Hook and look tape makes for a simple closure, but buttonholes and buttons make a cute alternative. A button closure is also a great way to put those lonely buttons to use.
