Have you ever used a pool noodle as a decorative wreath? I got the idea from Pinterest and decided to give it a try.
You can purchase pool noodles at any store. It's so convenient to have plus it's great to keep a bunch of them on hand for future wreath projects!
Join the ends with silicone glue and use a painters tape to secure. Hold the ends together until the glue dries. The tape helps and it only takes about a minute.
Wrap yarn around the pool noodle wreath. Make sure it's completely covered. I like doing this project when I'm catching up with my recorded TV shoes. Set aside and cut out the number. I used a shipping box. It's thick enough for wrapping yarn around it.
Wrap the coordinating yarn around the number and glue ends.
I'm using a custom made PSA Essential stamp for this project. I designed this beautiful logo for my twins cookies and milk 2nd birthday party.
I chose a sepia ink and stamped a bunch of logos on a piece of ivory card stock. I used my sizzix circle die to cut the logo for the mini wreath pennant. Glue circle logo tags on pre-cut banners. Punch holes and thread yarn through.
Attach banner on top of the wreath and add the number two.
I also added a ribbon pinwheel to the design.
It's all done and ready to great our guests for the cookies and milk festivities.
