A Halloween Wreath

 Visit thecsiproject.com




 


Inspired by the yarn ball wreath in

here is my version for Halloween!

I am loving indoor wreaths,
just adds a little fun inside.



I won't put it out until October (along with my Halloween quilt)

BUT I did buy more yarn in pretty fall colors for another wreath.
Fall is almost here! 

I posted my Halloween Wreath at these blogs.

I got really excited when I saw this- I started thinking of all the different holiday/season color combos you could try and it made me want one for every season. Fabulous!

McKinley {Haolepinos} said...

I like this wreath a lot and I am interested in making one, but the link you added doesn't show the DIY tutorial. I was wondering if you can fill me in on how you kept the yarn balls together or if you connected them on. You can email me at:

Haolepinos{@}gmail{.}com

Thank you!!!

Unknown said...

Ditto to what McKinley said. You've inspired me to make this great wreath; however, I'm not sure how to keep the balls together. Do you have them glued/attached to a frame, using wire...? I'm a paper crafter and in branching out to other crafty genres I need instructions! Please help! haha Thanks!

I'd also like the instructions on how to put this together. Please email me! seoulwriter@gmail.com
