How to Make Coral Decorations
- 1). Cut a strip of stiff paper or cardboard that will fit on your window sill.
- 2). Place the strip on a flat work surface. Position the coral along the paper in an appealing design. For example, arrange the coral based on its color, or position small pieces between larger ones for a balanced aesthetic.
- 3). Remove the coral pieces from the cardboard and place them directly in front of the strip so you do not lose track of where you planned to position them.
- 4). Plug in your hot glue gun and allow 10 minutes for it to heat up. Squirt a dab of hot glue onto the cardboard and press the first piece of coral upright in the glue. Use a dab about the size of a dime for small pieces of coral and the size of a quarter for larger pieces.
- 5). Hold each piece of coral in place until the glue hardens. Let go of the coral and the glue will hold it in place. Repeat until you have attached each piece of coral to the strip.
- 6). Position the ornate strip on a prominent window sill to display your own coral garden decoration.
