I have been lusting after a new wreath. I wanted a "yarn wreath." This is what I am talking about.....I think these are so pretty! BUT they all run on average $35 - 40 plus shipping...
Soooooo, I thought I would try to make one! I know, I can hear the snickering in the background. So I have been researching online - reading craft blogs and watching tutorials and really, it kind of looked easy. So I went to my local craft shop and Wal-Mart and got my supplies.
And I started wrapping and wrapping and wrapping. It was going well until the yarn snagged and tangled and then it took me two hours to wrap the wreath.
Then I had a little helper and we made some rosettes out of felt.
This was my favorite part. The rosettes are sooooooo easy and they look so cute!!!
Voila! Here is my new wreath!! Isn't it cute!! I can't believe I made it. And CHEAP! With my Hobby Lobby coupons and Wal-Mart, I spent about $12. Not bad!!
Here is a close-up of my flowers!
More on why I picked these colors later.....
