Dont buy a felt ball garland when they are SO easy to make!
This simplefeltballgarlandis a fun andeasy craftthat adds some color and interest in an unexpected spot.
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.
I highly recommend doing it the way Ive shown in the pictures below.
You wont see them (use a hammer to tap them in).
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.
Or you could try draping them over some white curtains.
No pins are required for either method!
Honestly, it could go anywhere!
Just customize the color of the balls.
It would make a greatbirthday party decorationtoo.
Bring it out on special occasions!

Wouldnt it look fantastic with some of these balls in fall colors?
