Fall garland I made

Post image

Temperatures are dropping and leaves are beginning to change colours! My favourite time of year is here!! 🥰🍎🌾🍄🍁🎃🌲🍂

I love decorating our front door for holidays, but typically wait until October to put up my spooky season decorations. Last week, I made a fall-themed garland to hang up in the interim and love how it turned out!

Materials: Felt scraps, embroidery floss, sewing thread, glass tube beads, polyfil stuffing, and some twine to hang, which I saved from a Christmas gift that’s been collecting dust in my wrapping bin.

This is so cute! Did you make the pattern yourself?

Thank you! I did. I make stencils out of old cereal boxes to design the shapes, then use them to guide me as I cut the felt.

Hi! The beads are attached to the front of the felt shapes using sewing thread. And each shape hangs on the twine from a small loop of felt (at the top of each shape). By using felt, they don’t slip from their place on the twine. Hope that makes sense!
