For the longest time I have wanted to make a yarn wreath and I finally found the time to make one for my home.
The Materials
All I used was a small spool of yarn.
Laced Ribbon.
Pins.
Burlap.
Fabric.
{ I found all the material at Wal-Mart}
The Tutorial
1
I secured the yarn to the wreath with a knot and a pin.
After it was in place I rolled the yarn around the wreath and
I rolled… rolled… rolled and rolled.
{Keep the yarn tight and close together. }
2
After the wreath was covered with yarn I added some flowers made of fabric.
Anyone can make these flowers.
I cut pairs of circles of different sizes. I placed two of them together so the best part of the fabric will show on both sides.
To make the flower fold the circles in half to make a semicircle{ picture 2}.
Then fold it in thirds {picture 3} overlapping the layers {picture 4}.
You are done.
3
Attach the flowers to the wreath with pins.
Add as many flowers as you like to achieve the look you love.
I used different patterns of fabric to make it fun.
4
To finish it I added some burlap leaves, white pins, laced ribbon and the crazy fun white yarn.
Some more ribbon on the top to tie it to my old window and I was done!
I love Spring!
I’ll be back tomorrow with another easy Spring project.
Happy Tuesday!

Thank You… I am glad you like it!
Beautiful. I love the idea of the way you used the white pins. I never would have thought of that. So much easier than the way I would have thought to add something that looks like pearls.
Sweet Spring Perfection.
Shannon, you are so sweet and good to me.
Love you girl!
