Fall Felt Leaf Garland Supplies:
- Felt Leaf Wreath Kit (I actually only used one for my garland.)
- Sew Easy Floss
- Needle
I received two of the wreath kits from ConsumerCrafts, expecting them to be smaller. There are so many leaves in one kit. I used almost an entire kit and have over 10 feet of garland! The leaves that you get in the kit are pictured below. The variety of types and colors appears to be random.
The floss pictured above is 6 strand embroidery thread. I separated it into three strands and threaded through a large needle.
Then, I just hand stitched the leaves together. I made it where there was only a small stitch visible on the “front”.
And the larger leaf length stitch on the back. The leaves have somewhat of a pattern to how I stitched them together. But like I said before, the package is random so you might have to use more of one type or color than another.
That is all there is to this one! Just a few TV episodes over a few days and I had over 10 feet of garland. I love that I could walk away from this one at any time. I just worked on it a little at a time.
I strung my fall felt leaf garland around the light in my kitchen. A super simple craft and so simple to just drape over a light or onto a mantle.
What neat craft! It’s definitely starting to feel fallish. So this would be a great craft to make with the kids and something that versatile. We could add a few turkeys and use it for Thanksgiving as well.
Instead of making felt leaves myself I just might have to order one of those. They look really nice with the veins on the leaves. I’m a little behind in my emails so sorry if this comment is a bit tardy. I have to really look at things, pin them, etc. so it takes me awhile to get thru at least 100 posts. There’s so much inspiration, including on this site, I hate to miss any of it.
I like to leave a comment when I can but then that takes mucho time also. Happy days. Love your leaf garland. I love to make things for Fall.
