Hey there! Remember my Cozy Felt Flower Wreath? Well, it’s now brightened up to reflect the almost-spring time of year. Around here the breeze is still c-c-cold, and we are still getting snow, but when the sun comes out, it feels a leeeeeetle warmer. So I wasn’t quite ready for full-blown spring-has-sprung on the front door. Plus I just loved my wreath and wasn’t done looking at it. So I kept the cozy felt and the gray…but added some yellow and a bird nest.
Thanks to these Velcro buttons, changing my wreath to fit the season was as easy as…
I’m so glad I wasn’t hasty with my glue gun when I originally made this yarn wreath. As many of you might already know from first-hand experience, it takes a month of Sundays to wrap one of these things. Instead, I attached all of the embellishments with Velcro so it’s a snap to change things up.
In case you’re wondering, I used the same technique to make the yellow roses as I used to make the blue ones from before. The tutorial is from Paper & Stitch. I found the bird nest at The Dollar Store.
Until next time…
It's such a beautiful wreath! I love the use of velcro…so smart! 🙂
Makes me so happy when I read about yet another blogger finding ways to be able to change things without a big deal and headaches. So smart of you. I've never wound yarn around a wreath since I'm pretty impatient to take time. Someday maybe.
Your wreath is inspiring, love your felt flowers and bird nest. Great project.
Happy March
what a great idea to use Velcro…! I can't wait to see what other themes you will change this wreath into!

Ingenious idea. Your wreath looks great! I'm sharing this on my Once Upon a Firefly FB page today.
Genius. I wish I had more to say but that sums it up perfectly. Totally following you going forward! xx Jess
That's a great idea! What a wonderful way to reuse something over and over while giving it fresh life.
I love this idea. I have seen this done with clips on the back of the flowers and stuff, but I imagine velcro would hold better if you have to worry about wind. I found you on Classy Clutter's link party and I'll be following you from now on.
did you ever play the money learning game Presto Chango as a kid? Well your title brought back a flood of memories for me :o) Love you wreath too! I hope you will stop by and link this up to my Tasteful Tuesdays party (opens Monday night)
