Yarn wrapped letters are wonderful decorations and they are so simple to make. They are easy to customize and make your own unique letter. Here are the steps to create this lovely decoration
Supplies needed:
- Cardboard (I used a cereal box for mine)
- Yarn (Any color you choose, thick yarn is better)
- Scissors are X-acto knife
Step 1:
Cut out your letter from the cardboard. Use any font you want but try to use a font that will be easier to wrap yarn around. Try avoiding fonts with sharp corners.
Step 2:
Put a dab og hot glue on the back of the letter and start wrapping the yarn around. Wrap the yarn around as many times as you like. It really depends on how thing you want it to be.
Step 3:
Once you are done wrapping the yarn around the letter hot glue the end on the back of the letter.
Step 4:
This step is optional. I like to add a little decoration on the letter to give it a nice finishing touch. On this letter a placed a tulle flower I made on the made corner of the letter. I think it gives a really cute touch.
I made this letter for my little sister Lucy. She loved it!
This is really cute!! I have been into wrapping things with yarn lately! Hadn't thought of this yet though!
