wool felt shamrock garland

A fun and easy DIY- a wool felt shamrock garland can cozy up your house for March and the anticipation of spring and summer to follow!

Supplies:

• Shamrock pattern- whatever size you like best, with 3 or 4 leaves.
• Wool or wool felt
• Embroidery floss.
• Sequins
• Beads
• Wool felt balls or flowers
• Ribbon
• Tinsel trim
• Scissors
• Sewing needle
  
  Cut out the shamrock shapes (as many as you prefer) with a smaller shamrock cut for both sides. With the embroidery floss, sew the shamrocks 3 layers together with a running stitch.
  Sew the sequins onto both sides at the same time with a bead in the center of each detail to hold it in place. I stacked 2, 3 or 4 sequins of different shapes and colors to add plenty of texture and color.
  Add flowers, felt balls or anything else that you prefer in between the shamrocks. I also added various ribbons (in short 3 inch lengths) in between the shamrocks.
  I needed some gold in the mix so I added the gold tinsel trim when stringing them together.
  
  
  
  
  
  
• As you can see, I sewed the string to attach all of the shamrocks together just to the outside of the shamrocks. This worked fine but the string could have been threaded between the layers of wool and hidden a bit better.  Thanks for following along, enjoy your springtime season and Happy St. Patricks Day!
