Yarn Wreath!
I was so excited about the yarn wreath post in aweilba's blog that I ran right out to Hobby Lobby and got my craft on!
I'm going to make 4 for my classroom. I'm a kindergarten teacher and thought it would be cute if I had one to hang that coordinated with each season. To get my feet wet I started with my Fall wreath. I used brown yarn and fall colors (red, orange, golden yellow, and dark purple) felt for the flowers. I followed the tutorial that aweilba posted (http://www.danielleburkleo.com/2010/10/diy-yarn-wreath-with-felt-flowers.html)...and TA-DA!!!!
*forgive the blurriness...I took the pics on my cell phone*
Seriously guys, this was SOOOO super easy to make. I can't wait to make my other 3 and I can easily see myself making more for around the house (much to the dismay of my DH...lol)!
Re: Yarn Wreath!
Thanks guys! I searched a couple other sites for more ideas and came across a tutorial for a cute pom pom type flower.
I'm going to try these later as well! :-)
Aweilba- I also loved the pic of the stripped wreath that you posted on your blog. After I get a few more under my belt, I'm gonna try to tackle one like it. :-/ It definitely looks a bit harder though!
Yeah, I love that one! I love the creative flowers in it. I'm trying to find a place to put another one of these inside of the house... maybe inside of the back door? DH just smiles and nods as I contemplate these things.
So cool to see us discsus DIY projects again
Feels like last year! I have to try to make one too
