Rainbow Felt Wreath Instructions:
STEP ONE
To begin the Rainbow Felt Wreath, gather all supplies. Remove the label from the embroidery hoop. Loosen the screw on the embroidery hoop and separate the rings to create two wreaths.
Organize all the colors of the felt scraps. Use ALL the colors that you have on hand or purchase one sheet of 10-12 different rainbow colors. These felt craft sheets are under fifty cents each at the big box craft stores.
STEP TWO
For this project, use the 9″ width of the felt craft sheets, and make a stack of bits and pieces that are long enough. Randomly cut the scraps and/or the felt sheets into strips, some skinny and some fat, with scissors. For this 10″ hoop cut approximately 100 strips. This is a great task to complete while watching television.
STEP THREE
Start tying the strips felt around the embroidery hoop in double knots. Use the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock marks as a starting point. This is a great activity for the kiddos to help with.
STEP FOUR
Continue working around the entire hoop, pushing the strips together to get as many on as possible.
The more felt strips tied onto the hoop the fluffier the wreath will be.
STEP FIVE
To finish the Rainbow Felt Wreath, trim any long ends with scissors.
Tie a ribbon or twine hanger at the top of the embroidery hoop.
