Spinning a yarn

Standard

A couple of days ago I posted about some great wreaths that I had seen and felt I should give making one of them a go! I made a trip to Hobby Craft, purchased a styrofoam ring, some brightly coloured striped yarn and some matching felt and set to work! Here’s how I got on..

Half way through wrapping the yarn around the ring, all going well till I got in a bit of a tangle and had to get my husband to rescue me!

I then moved on to making the felt flowers – some better than others but improved with practice!

The finished wreath. I just need to get some matching ribbon to hang it from!

I loved making this and have already thought of lots more ideas for future projects! Why don’t you give making one a go?
