A little DIY project: felt garland

This is really a nice last minute DIY project for a felt garland.


All you need is:

white felt (for 30 circles all I used is a piece of 20 x 10 cm and still had some left)
some sewing thread in a nice colour, I chose a fluor pink.
a needle
scissors
a round cookie cutter of 25 mm

The first thing you do is to push the cookie cutter in a piece of felt until you can see the line where to cut the circle out of the felt. Then you cut the felt in pieces to make it easier to handle, make sure it's big enough to cut the size of the circles. Put the first circle on a piece of felt, hold it between your finger and thumb and cut around the circle. This way you cut all the circles. 


When the cutting is done you take the needle and thread and stitch the thread through all the felt circles, like on the photo above...

Et voilà, your garland is ready to bring a little prettiness to your wall. Or tree. Or wreath. Or somewhere else you like...


Easy peasy to make and so much fun to do while drinking your cuppa during tea time!

I'll add another pic soon, when I finished the garland it was too dark for a proper pic...

Have a lovely evening!
