Make a Halloween felt ball garland perfect for decorating a doorway or a mantel!
However, you might also make the balls using wool, and that process is quite easy as well.
Even a child could make this garland.
Im kind of excited to share thisHalloween decorproject.
It was such a FUN and easy one to put together that I cant wait to show you!
So I went ahead and made aChristmas felt ball garlandand a winter felt ball garland too.
It was obvious that I couldnt stop and that I needed to do the same for Halloween as well.
Sure enough, I went to back toEtsyand found some felt ghosts.
My Halloween felt ball garland was born!
Its lightweight and easy to hang up with pins or Command strips.
It can go anywhere!
There are lots of options.
Its more time consuming but its fun, especially when you might put the kids to work doing it!
Youll need to purchase wool roving.
Besides the wool, youll need hot water and dish soap.
Youll still want to use wool felt or wool yarn.
No two balls will be the same, and its very colorful!
How Many Balls?
How many wool balls will you get out of a 1/2 oz.
package of wool roving?
Approximately 12 16 at about a 1/2 diameter.
It varies greatly depending on how tightly you squeeze the balls, etc.
I recommend estimating conservatively so that you have wool roving to make your balls.
Are you ready to make your garland?
Heres what youre going to need.

How to Hang Your Felt Garland
you could drape yourDIY garlandover just about anything.
I highly recommend doing it the way Ive shown in the pictures below.
Swag your DIY garland about every three to five feet for a little interest.
You never want to hang it straight.
The swag (tacking it up at various points) will integrate into your decor better.
This Halloween felt ball garland doesnt have to be the same colors I used.
Just customize the color of the balls.
