My yarn wreath makes me happy. I made this wreath a few years ago and it brings a pop of whimsy to my front door.
However, when I was grabbing my Christmas wreath to sub out a few weeks ago, it fell unceremoniously onto the floor of my basement, and the styrofoam wreath form cracked and broke. Once the holidays are over, I wanted another yarn wreath to adorn my door, so I got to work.
I bought this rustic form from the dollar store (yay affordability!). On my previous wreath, all the yarn balls were made from yarn wrapped carefully around styrofoam balls, so I cut away the old, rather dusty yarn and got to work glue gunning and rewrapping the wreath with new yarn. I’ve always liked teals and browns together, and I thought these colours would go well with the rustic wreath.
And I’m rather pleased with the finished result.
Thank you for this! Given how rough 2020 has been, I really want to make our house extra festive this year, and maybe do some extra crafting with my kids. I hadn’t even thought of a yarn wreath, but I love it! ๐

Thank you! They were just two odd needles, different sizes, but they kind of make the wreath!
