Joy Burlap Banner

I have been wanting to make a burlap banner for awhile but just never got the gumption to get it going. 

 I decided I wanted a cute burlap banner for Christmas and so I set out to make a rather versatile one. 

 My Christmas color scheme this year is cream/white/burlap, with some turquoise thrown in. Think lots of texture! 

 My DD's middle name is Joy so after Christmas I can put it in her room and enjoy it for longer than a month!

Not sure I'm liking the ribbon used to hang it, that may be changing. 

But for now. I'm enjoying my stenciled burlap banner.

Chic Christmas Wreath {On The Cheap}

This is a super cute and super frugal Christmas wreath. I just got the idea in my head for the colors and since I already had the turquoise yarn, it was a done deal!

This wreath cost me all of $1, because I already had most of these items on hand. But, if you had to buy all of these things to make this wreath, it would still only cost you a few dineros, like only 4 or 5 of them.

You will need:

Wreath Form {found at the $ store}

Yarn {your choice color}

Head Pins or glue

Fabric -to make the yo-yo's

Needle and Thread

Glitter word {$1 at Walmart}

Hot Glue Gun {to attach all items to the wrapped wreath}

Wrap the form with the yarn several times, until the form is no longer showing {I used flat head pins to secure, but you could also glue} and make sure the ends of the yard all meet on one side

Once completely covered I added a few funky wraps to give it some texture

Make as many yo-yo's as you would like to add on and decorate with your glitter word as well.

{If you don't know how to make a yo-yo, simply google it, there are so many tuts on them}
