C.R.A.F.T. # 62: 3 Types of Garland

September 22, 2010 By Jamie Dorobek 9 Comments

I’ve posted a little about the surprise party!
(Light up wine glass?!)
 
I made 3 different garlands to spruce up the house…
{I’m lovin’ garland [garland round up] right now because it is easy to make, use stuff from around the house, and you can store them around a toilet paper roll in a little zip lock in your closet!}
More details about the post about letter banners!
Materials: itty bitty fabric scraps, yarn, coasters, t-shirts, really any kind of fabric like stuff, doily’s, and adhesive card stock!!
 

Garland #1: As seen in the happy birthday picture! Very simple. Cut scraps of fabric in diamond shapes and sew into a triangle over the yarn

 

each one is sewn on different—i L O V E this kind of sewing!
 
Garland #2: This one uses the coasters [above] t-shirt scraps and adhesive card stock…it is the one with the colorful dots! I spray painted the coaster gray and black… and cut squares of a old, white, crusty, t-shirts…then used my same, fabulous sewing technique! Then used a glass to trace and cut circles from card stock and stuck 2 circles between the yarn wherever I felt like one needed to be!
 

Garland #3: NO Sewing 🙂 Just taping doilies…This one was definitely the easiest to make…fold doily over yarn and tape 🙂 It was nice because I could move the doily’s around to create the perfect swoop! With the garlands that are sewn, this is not an option…so think about how many items you want in a swoop [does that make any sense?!]

not a great pic, but you can see lots of garland action..!
[that is the BF, just in case you are curious!]
