fun fall project - felt flower wreath

i recently started a pinterest account and must say that i LOVE it! i have to limit my time since i easily get hooked searching for fun projects and before i realize it i’ve been looking for over an hour! 

recently i came across several pictures of wreaths that i liked.  i’ve never been a big fan of wreaths (other than the christmas tree wreaths that smell amazing :)) – but when i saw a wreath with felt flowers i decided that i had to give it a try :)
here are the supplies:
  • wreath form - i couldn’t find a fabric form but straw worked great & will keep it’s shape over time
  • 2 colors of yarn – or ribbon – or jute
  • several different colors of felt
  • hot glue gun
  • felt glue
  • string (for felt flowers)


i googled several different types of felt flowers and came up with a  couple on my own.  i did end up sewing a few of the flowers together since i felt like the glue wouldn’t dry as fast as i needed it to.

here’s the finished product…..



i love it!  it was fun to make and you can make several to use for different seasons.  starting my christmas wreath soon!!!
