I love that PicMonkey exists now that picnik is no longer around. I recently learned how to make some cute subway art using PicMonkey so I created these to put on the mantel in celebration of a very fun time of year!

Summer Yarn Wreath
Just finished this beauty last weekend, hoping to get some momentum going with my crafting.
Supplies:
Foam wreath form
yarn (the cheapest stuff you can find in a color you like)
felt
hot glue/gun
fabri-tac
pre-cut felt letters and owls
2 in Satin Ribbon
Step 1: Wrap foam form until completely covered with yarn - here's where you can bring in color or leave it white. Consider your door color, if its dark like mine you may want to go with a light color if it is white or light gray you may want to do something a little darker.
Step 2: You make the felt flowers of your choice, I used rolled, folded "s", and the spaghetti looking type. It's easier find detailed instructions either on pinterest or the web to make them.
Step 3: Adhere flowers in any fashion that looks nice to you - there is no set pattern.
Step 4: Cut out felt triangles and adhere precut letters (welcome, your last name, or hello would make great phrases for the front door)
Step 5: Hot glue the pennants to rick rak or some other ribbon and the to the wreath. Add the owls as a finishing touch
Step 6: Hang with a 2 in satin ribbon.
Viola! Another great pinterest inspired craft :-)
