Crafty -Yarn Wreath

Hey guys! As stated in my previous post Passion and Purpose I really enjoys crafts. I wanted to share with you one of my more recent creations. Yarn Wreaths. They are so much fun, very affordable and EASY!!!! This would be a great craft for Women’s weekends or any teen class you are leading. Here are a few examples and inspirations.

This one is a creation by my sister-in-law. She is so talented.  

This next one is a great DIY from Kelly Hicks’ Blog.  She cuts little strips of yarn and ties them to the wreath. That’s way too much work for me. I just hot glued the first piece and kept wrapping the yarn around the wreath being sure to overlap a few for character.

And for any of you who want one, but don't want to make one. You can always buy handmade crafts at ETSY.com.  Here is the most popular Yarn Wreath seller on Etsy.... ItzFritz. But Trust me you can do this!

And here is my creation. I know it’s not the best photo my camera was dead so I tried to used my iPhone camera and let’s just say I am NOT a pro with the iPhone. But you get the Idea.

And now for the close ups.

Notice the overlap detail. fun and Easy!

I made this wreath with very fluffy yarn, fabric roses, and vintage buttons for my great friend Amber. If you don’t remember Amber I talk about her in these two posts: Time Travel, and Germination. I am very happy to report that this was made for Amber’s WEDDING SHOWER!!!!! Congratulations Amber and Bryan.
