Inspire(d) Blog

Everyday holds wonderful manifestations of God's love. He teaches me lessons through my children and the journey of life. I found out that one just has to open their eyes and start looking at the mundane in a creative way.

Hi! Welcome to Crafty Friday! Today I'm going to show how to make and easy "rag wreath".

 

I wanted to make some quick, cheap and easy changes around the house for spring so I came up with this rag wreath. It was inspired by the book wreath. How to at Living with Lindsey.

 

 

But I just was getting impatient and wanted to use things I already had at home. So I came up with a "rag wreath" using leftover sewing scraps.

 

 

 

You need:

1 place mat with basket weave design

lots of fabric

scraps cut into 2-3 inch squares (the more squares the fluffier your wreath!)

scissors

and paint brush with a slim handle

 

Instructions:

1. Take a scrap and place it over the one of the holes in the place mat

2. Take the end of the paintbrush and push the middle of the square into the hole and slightly twist so it creates a small rosette look

3. Repeat for all of the holes

4. Do this while listening to music or watching a movie. It takes a while! :)

 

 

For a more detailed tutorial check out my youtube channel!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ENJOY!

Have a blessed weekend! Remember to smile it releases endorphins and it makes you look younger! LOL!
