Perfect Paper Chevron Lines


I feel like if you can cut Chevron lines out of paper and get a bottle of Mod Podge there are hundreds of cute crafts you can do. In fact, I wanted to make some Chevron Coasters. And so. . . I learned how to get the perfect Chevron lines cut out of paper - AND it's super simple.



All you have to do is draw a grid on the back of the paper you are going to use. I drew 1/2" squares - the bigger the squares, the bigger the zig zag lines. And then all ya gotta do is connect the corners diagonally like the picture shows. I wanted skinnier lines so after I connected all the corners I drew another set of lines splitting the Chevron stripe in half. Simple as that!! Get crafting!
