2014 - Garlands, Garlands, Garlands Part 1

Nothing like waiting until the last minute.  Who's ready for Saturday?

Here we go - I love these.

Mini Pennant Garlands  - Project #1

Remember the cutter quilts we used last year to make ornaments?  Now we are making the cutest mini pennants.

Or how about one of our favorites - recycled felted sweater wool?!!!!!!

Or for some sparkle and minimalist elegance - we have another made from metallic wall paper samples.  Oh la la!  Pass the champagne - we are ready to party.

.

Depending on what colors you choose these could be used for all kinds of party events and fun home decor.  But as always - your choice.


Silver Embossed Garland - Project #2

SHINY!

This garland is going to give a dramatic reflective effect to the lights on the tree.  Plus it's just fun to make.  We are using the shiny aluminum duct tape from the hardware store with some recycled chip board (cereal box cardboard) to custom make this garland.  Plus you can press in all kinds of cute designs or letters to spell out words etc. with a ball point pen or pencil.  Can't wait to see all the creativity on this one!

I only have this one picture right now - but I think you can get the idea.

So far so good.  More to come.....................

So if you have:

• Sharp scissors -----bring it (put your name on them).
• Material (cutter quilts, felted wool, fancy metallic papers) to share----- bring it.
• Favorite sharp embroidery needle with large eye ----bring it.
• Some chip board (cereal box type cardboard) - It should be thin enough to cut or punch fairly easily ---- bring it.  And I love you all, but don't bring me all your recycling.
• Something to keep your projects in------- like a copy paper box lid, shoe box, or something.

More projects to come!!!
