Fun Arts And Crafts!

Hey guys welcome back to my blog. Today I am going to make this cool decoration you can hang in your room. I got this idea off the internet, I've decided to teach you how to make it.

   You will need:

  • Wool
  • A Stick 
  • Scissors           








    Step 1:
First cut a piece of wool that is pretty long this will be the longest piece you have.







Step 2:
Now fold the bit of wool you cut off in half twice. 







Step 3: 
place the stick on top of the wool with about 1 Cm of the wool above the stick. Also make sure where you folded it is above the stick. (so there is a loop)






 Step 4:
Next pick up the loop that is above the stick and pull it over top of the stick, reach through the hole with your pointer finger and thumb and pull through the bottom of the wool, pull that tight. 
 







 


Step 5: 
Now cut the loop at the end of the wool that isn't on the stick. 








Step 6:
Next repeat steps 1 - 5 but using shorter bits of wool each time. You will need two bits of wool the same length for either side of the middle one you started with.  ( or just do the same length and then trim each one getting shorter as you go)





Step 7:
Once you have attached around 7 pieces (Or as wide as you like it) , take a long bit of wool and tie it onto both ends of the stick then you have something to hang it up with.


 

I hope you try this fun craft it is pretty simple once you understand how to make it. 
What colour wool would you choose?
