Yarn Wreath and Felt Flowers DIY Tutorial

I love the look of yarn wreaths-- they are also so welcoming. They are also great for people who aren't all that artistic-- just pick a color and wrap it around a wreath. Not rocket science. I also love felt flowers because they are so easy to make! I decided to combine the two for a new summer wreath!

It's so simple! It takes some time simply because of wrapping the yarn, but it's so easy!

How To Make The Flowers
Buy sheets of felt at the craft store in the colors you like. You will need about half a sheet per large flower. At Joann's they were only $0.34 per sheet.

Make sure you have a hot glue gun or fabric glue and scissors! That's all you need!

I cut the felt in strips that were about 1 1/2 inches wide. The length will be dependent on the size you want the flowers to be-- the longer the length, the larger the flower. You can keep adding strips to a already made flower to make it bigger.

Fold the strips in half and glue them together.

This is the fun part! Cut little strips into the folded felt to create your "petals". They can be thick, thin, diagonal, straight, cut from the side you glued or the seam where you folded.. whatever you like. Each flower will come out differently when you change things just slightly.
