Colorful Felt Garland

It’s raining colorful felt balls!

i’m totally falling for these very fun and colorful felt balls.  i came across this trivet in a wonderful home and garden store in berkley.  once i was home, i quickly got on the internet and found the instructions on how to make them.  i tried making them but it was harder than the instructions showed.  i would recommend that you buy them from Amazon, here is the link for the felt balls.  i created a fun holiday garland using red and white craft thread.  if you attempt this project all you’ll need is the thread (here is the link, baker’s twine), a craft needle and the felt balls.  since the thread is so thick you won’t need to knot the balls into place.  just slide them on the thread and they’ll stayed in place.  i plan to make some fun magnets out of them.  once i’ve completed the project, i’ll post the photos.

here is the craft thread that i used.

i love the colors…you can tell which ones i made…they have seams, whereas the bought ones are smooth!  oh well….at least i can advise you buy them on Amazon!  some 

Michael’s Craft stores carry them also.
