project: upcycled sweater wreaths

First of all, let me say that I did not come up with this idea. I first saw one on Etsy's homepage and thought it was so simple and lovely.














Inspiration: wool wreath by hersheyismybaby

So I picked up some nearly 100% wool sweaters at Goodwill, felted them, and got to cutting. This was the longest part of the project... cutting out all those leaf shapes. Then I hot-glued them to some straw wreath forms (cheaper than foam ones) and voila!






















These are going in our bedroom above our not-new-but-improved headboard... more on that (and a before-and-after chair) tomorrow! Now what to do with all those left over leaves... a pillow maybe?
