Yarn Wrapped Ornament Jingle Bell Wreath

Here's another wreath from last year... I was so excited to pull this one out of storage.

I had a lot of fun making this one.  I had seen some yarn-wrapped ornaments on display at Starbucks and fell in love immediately.

I started by wrapping the straw wreath form in yarn.

Then I wrapped a bunch of styrofoam balls with yarn.

I also added in some yarn-wrapped ornaments.  I liked that some of the sparkle of the ornament showed through.

Throw in a few jingle bells and whole mess of hot glue and you have yourself a yarny-ornament-jingle bell wreath!

What do you think?  Are you ready to start pulling your Christmas stuff out yet?  Now that it's getting colder I can't wait to get the tree up!

Blessings,
Jamie

  8. I really sort of love this. Probably most of all I love the colors-- not your typical color combination for Christmas and not super trendy color combo either. I love it.

  15. I was unsure about creating a yarn wreath--yours has encouraged me to give it a try. I like how you added the bells--so different.

  36. Visiting from FJI. I love this! What a cute idea! Although never ready for the holiday hustle and bustle, I love pulling out my handmade ornaments and deciding what I would like to make to add to my collection. Your wreath has inspired me.

  37. I just made my first yarn ball wreath tonight. After I had glued all the yarn balls on I realized I should have wrapped the wreath part in yarn, ribbon, burlap, anything really - like you did. I had to go back and try to cover the ugly wreath part with pieces of red ribbon; it's basically a hot mess from the back but it looks ok from the front. Live and learn! I love the jingle bells you put on yours. I may have to buy some at the store and add them to mine.
