During the fall, the sidewalks are abundant with leaves and twigs. I notice these as I wait at the bus stop, and my mind races with ideas on how to possibly craft with them.
Here are a few ways I've turned twigs from blah to TADA!:
A macrame' wall hanging. It's traditionally made with rope but yarn was what I had on hand.
Here's another idea:
We'll need a twig.
And some fabric remnants...no sewing necessary. The frayed edges add rustic personality.
And fabric markers. It's a clever application for brush calligraphy or bounce lettering.
With hand stitching, sew a pocket for the twig.
A few meters of thread makes for an instant hanging device.
A simple decoration that can be personalized for the home or dorm room...TADA!
I actually have a twig-and-yarn wall hanging idea I've been playing with. I'm going to try it for sure now. (I especially like your woven variation.)
ReplyDeleteHi Priscilla! I can't wait to see what you've made. Thanks for your regular visits! :-)
