Hello how are you? Its the summer holidays and as always life as a mum and running Said Lucy is keeping me so busy that my craft time is really limited sadly. But this months wreath wasn't exactly what I had in my head but that's OK. I was thinking about weaving, Plats and I really wanted this wreath to be one that needed very little skills. Infact with it being the summer holidays I did wonder if the younger people in our life would be able to cope with this one. Take a polystyrene wreath base of any size. I went for a small one and some wool or string in what ever colour you would like. I choose this chunky wool from shawls in a rainbow print colour. Simply wrap it around the base you can use a little hot glue to secure it if you need to. Then you will need 6 strands of wool each a meter long. Using three pieces to make a plat and then do the same with the remaining pieces. I wove these around the wreath crossing each other and tying at the bottom to form a tassel effect. You could use a range of colours if you wanted. I have been working with fake flowers a lot for Said Lucy so I would love next months wreath to use some. Here are a few of the hair clips I have been making. I am totally in love with making these so a wreath should be fun. Have a wonderful weekend everyone, thanks for reading xxxx
