Yarn Wreath with Fall Attachment



In the spring I made this wreath with a Spring attachment, with the plan that I could change the attachment with each season. I live overseas, and thought it would be more efficient to make one wreath with different attachments for different seasons than to make several different ones. 


With September almost over, I decided last weekend that it was time to make an attachment for the fall and this is what I came up with:


I really like it. 




This is what the wreath looks like without the attachment- 2 clear snaps that I sewed onto the wreath through the yarn. 


Here is the attachment by itself:


And this is the back with the snaps attached with hot glue:


I made 4 different types of felt flowers- these are my 3 favorite:

The fluffy yellow one:


This red one:


And this little guy:


I used a satin brown ribbon I had to hang it with. 


I can't wait to make a winter attachment in a few months!

Joyfully Re-Attached,

  5. I love it! I reuse my wreath forms too. Especially when you spend so much time wrapping the yarn wreaths, it's well worth it! I love how you freshened it up for fall - the colors of the felt flowers are beautiful! Can't wait to see what you do for winter. We'd love if you would link up to our Fall Wreath Craft Party this month!

  8. I love the idea of an interchangeable wreath. You were very clever to add those snaps. That is something I would not have thought of. Very cute flowers you added. My favorite are those gold pom pom ones. Thanks so much for your visit to my blog tonight.
