Pom Pom Bunting!

Pom Pom Bunting! Perfect across a mantle or swagged over a doorway or wall! These brightly colored balls are the cutest! I love all the bright colors, but you could get specific colors for a theme! Lots of times I find these on daily deal sights like Pick Your Plum .  You will need felted wool balls. Since they aren't always on deal sights, they are available through amazon. and big yarn needles like this: You will also need some twine or yarn. Measure out the desired length of yarn or twine. (mine is 6 feet) Then loop the yarn through a needle and start stringing on these darling felted wool balls. If you want the wool balls to stay in place better, tie a knot in the yarn after each ball.  I didn't, but I had some slip... Great for parties or home decor! These are going up in my daughter's room--so cute! This post published on Doodlecraft first

And then double up some festive bakers twine and tie it around the neck! Easy and adorable! Do you ever give store bought goodies in cute packaging? Tag it with #GiveBakery so we can all see it!

Fur Wreath Decorated with DCWV Paper!

 The ultimate question of this post... Which wreath do you like best? First I made a plush white fur wreath... I had a used, reused wreath form and white faux fur.  I cut a piece slightly larger than the wreath form...about 2 inches. and then cut the center circle out.  I cut notches in the center...  So the fur would be easy to wrap around the wreath.  I used hot glue and just glued the fur around the wreath.  Bit by bit with lots of hot glue!  Until it was all wrapped. The backside doesn't look the best... But once you flip it over, It's plush and perfect! Fur is so in right now! The fur also kind of acts like a pincushion... so I decided some decor on the wreath was needed. I received this big stack of fun papers, vinyl and tape from Die Cuts With a View--or DCWV! I've bought their paper for years now and absolutely love it! They sent me lots of great holiday papers! So much, I couldn't decide the t...
