There was a link for a rag fabric string light set. When you clicked on pattern there was something at the bottom about a rag wreath. i will see if i can find it again!

When I was in the third grade, we made those out of toilet paper. We each had to bring in a couple rolls of toilet paper, carefully tear each square off, and then take opposite corners and fold them over then twist a time or two and then twist them onto a wire coat hanger that we had stretched out into a circle. That was back in the day that you could buy "COLORED" Toilet paper. I remember we used pink and blue toilet paper. Wonder why you can't buy colored toilet paper anymore. Hmmmm
