This project was super cheap because I used this Fun Fur yarn I found in a bin at Dollar Tree. (If I had used a homemade poster board cone instead of a foam cone, it would have been even cheaper.)
The color is Taupe.
Yep, I did the usual - wrapped the yarn around and around the cone until it was covered.
I topped it off with my last snowflake ornament - no glue - just pushed it down into the foam cone.
I really love how this one turned out - the color - the texture - everything about it!
I displayed it alone and also placed it on top of a wood slice coaster - again no glue. I could even change out the snowflake topper for a small pinecone.
I hope these 5 make-ahead projects gave you some ideas on things you could do during the slower winter evenings of January to help you beat the Christmas rush of 2017. Happy crafting!
All is well in the Keweenaw.
Julie it is beautiful. Wonderful job.Miss you guys

What a great idea you can have out year round.
ReplyDeleteExactly what I was thinking! I love this one so much that I may remove the snowflake this Spring and leave it out! It's so pretty and neutral.
DeleteI love to get a head start on holiday crafts and gifts. Your tree is simply lovely. I'd love if you'd share it at the #ThisIsHowWeRoll Link Party that goes live at 5am on Thursdays at Organized31.com
