Do you think my reference to
puff-y in the title is about my hair?
Ha ha ha -- usually it would be . . .
but not this time!
Yarn pom-pom puffs is what I'm talking about!

So, are you crafty?
This is the time of year when I start thinking
of all the home-made and crafty things I should
do for the holidays!
Many years ago, I made almost
everyone's Christmas gift!
Some of those included:
hand-embroidered Christmas stockings;
lovely placemats;
aprons; bath wraps,
coasters and
Well, I just saw this DIY yarn puff
wreath on another blog
and it inspired me to put my craft hat on again!
The first one I made (see above) is white and the yarn may be too
loosely woven as it seemed to turn out like poodle puffs and a little fuzzy --
it's like my hair on a really humid day - think yarn puffs on steroids!
But, the first wreath is always a test one, right?

Now, I'm working on a red one and I think it
may be too Red!
Instead of all red, I might make it into a
peppermint wreath with red and white puffs -
what do you think of that idea?

Maddy said I could probably sell
them for $2.50 each.
Guess she's not too impressed
with my handiwork!
Tell the truth -- what do you think?
Wish me luck!

How fun! I'm loving all your ideas. Can't wait to see all your projects.
Homemade gifts come from the heart and are to me more treasured than a store bought gift. I think the red and white wreath would be cute and you could even use it for Valentine's Day probably with a different ribbon.
I have been wanting to do puffs this year with yarn with Lainey. Found a few things on Pinterest (of course). Love these!
Wow! I am soooo impressed! Love the red and white! Way to go!
I love the all white one with the red bow. I'd pay for one! And more than $5! :) Way to go, crafty mama!
can't wait to see the finished project!
