DIY: Mint Yarn Wreath


I have been loving everything Mint Green this summer, and when I saw THIS wreath inspiration on Pinterest I knew mint green yarn was a must when making this wreath.

Ingredients:
1.

1 Straw wreath ( do not take off the plastic, to avoid a mess)

2.


1 ball of the yarn of your choosing

3.




Felt for the florets.

4.

Hot Glue Gun






Step 1: Wrap the yarn around the straw wreath so that there is no straw showing through the yarn.  Add hot glue every so often when wrapping the yarn to keep the yarn in place.


I am not the best at describing how to make the florets, but I have previously blogged about it Here.  I made about 15 florets in different sizes and varying colors ( light pink, violet, and cream).  You can add as many or as few florets as you desire.  I found it best to make them first and then glued them in place once I found a look I liked. 


Happy Wednesday.
