I've been looking forward to swapping out my Valentine's Day Yarn Wreath (YW) with St. Patrick's Day for the past week. Not that I didn't love my Val one, because I did!!!, but there's something about a. a drinking holiday, b. green is my favorite color, and c. I LOVE making these wreaths!
What I love most about these yarn wreaths are their versatility. Because you pin on your decoration, nothing is permanent and you can build a new wreath for every season. Of course, you could just store your last wreath and start over (I thought about it) on a new one. It's up to you!!! Maybe I'll do that next time.....
So, here we go--this is how I built my new St. Pat's wreath:
|
The deconstruction of Val YW. |
|
Blank Slate.... |
|
Felt rosettes, poms, blooms, and ribbon ready to go! |
|
Starting pinning the pieces to your wreath,
reassembling as necessary. |
|
The finished product! |

After some thought, I'm thinking that after St. Pat's, I'll just remove the clover and keep this as my Michigan State YW. Perfection. ;)
Now you try!
Update! I made another one tonight because I sold the one above to an awesome guy I work with! Thanks Bill ;)
Here it is, Version Two.
