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.

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.

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!

Desirée.

 

I am sharing this project over at these parties!

    How long do u estimate it took to make this from start to finish? Pretty thinking of havingy young women group make them for Mothers day. Wonder about time and cost.

    • Desiree says:

      About 30 minutes. The cost will be around $5. You can also keep your eyes open for sales at JoAnns and Michaels for the foam wreath. If you get them at 40% off, each wreath will be around $3.
