felt ball garland – my DIY project this weekend
i saw these adorable felt ball garlands on etsy (by seller Made Mary) and thought that they looked easy enough to make myself…
so here is my simple weekend project…
*buy some felt balls: (i bought these from ornamentea.com. they are the 2 cm spectrum. 50 for $10.50. there are different color combinations of balls so you are sure to find a combo to match your nursery.)
*buy some embroidery floss and a small needle, but big enough to thread all the strands of embroidery floss. (i used white):
simply string the balls on the floss using your needle. you don’t even need to put knots around them. you can slide them around later for spacing. they move easily on the floss but will stay put once you have them spaced as you like:
….and VOILA! find a cute place in the nursery to hang your new garland! (i just hung this Ikea LACK shelf in the new nursery over the weekend…best shelves ever!)

Those are so cute. They would work in any room. Plus you can make your own felt balls!
