The Little Flat Yarn Wreath

We are headed to the lake today and I'm so excited.

Boats, sun and friends :)

Little man is super excited and made me get his new little digital camera out so he could practice taking pictures.

I love that little guy.

But I couldn't forget about you guys so I thought I'd show you a little wreath I did a few weeks ago when I was trying to figure out what to put on the door coming into the house in the garage.

It gets used the most and in this Arkansas humidty, it sticks a little so it gets shoved a. lot.

So I had a wreath on it before...that kept falling off and aside from nail-gunning (yes...it did cross my mind!!!) to the door, I had to come up with Plan B.

Enter the lightest flattest wreath ever.

Granted I let little man help...so it's kind of a wonky circle...but I kind of love it :)

Supplies:

*cardboard-or something to cut the shape out of

*yarn

*lots of patience :)

*embellishments to make your wreath look pretty

So first...cut your circle out.

I used some cardboard I had on hand.

And unless you let a four year old draw it like I did, it should come out as a circle :)

And then wrap and wrap and wrap.

And wrap some more.

It doesn't take that long...especially if you're watching your favorite tv show :)

But it does get boring after a while.

But it's totally worth it.

Embellish it as you want- I had these cute felt flowers I had on hand that worked perfectly.

I hung it with a piece of green grossgrain ribbon.

I just completely die over the texture of yarn.

Love. It.

And this is the perfect solution to my door/wreath problem.

It doesnt' fly in your face everytime you open the door...

and it hasn't fallen even once.

There you have it.

Another yarn wreath.

Just a little flatter :)

Hope everyone has a lovely Monday- I'll be back Wednesday after our lake time...

hopefully a little tanner.

But most likely just sunburned. :)
