The good news is that I am finally feeling like I can breath again. I had been feeling like I was underwater--SO much to do. But things have slowed down now. I am mostly unpacked and settled, the husband started his new job, kids are back in school, and now I feel like I can get back into crafting.
Here is a super easy craft for you. Remember that cloche I made awhile ago? Well, I have been debating what to put in it. Then one day it hit me--a bouncy ball. You know those bouncy balls you buy your kids for a quarter at Old Navy (am I the only one that does this?). I have TONS. I guess I have been to Old Navy kind of a lot.
But of course, I couldn't just put in plain old bouncy balls. No, but after about 10 minutes they were ready.
Quite simple. Only thing I used, JUTE, YARN, and SCISSORS. Simple. Start wrapping the ball in the yarn or jute. I didn't even glue or anything. Just wrap until you are happy with how it looks. I didn't go in any particular pattern. Once it is covered and looks okay, cut the yarn and tuck in somewhere. It doesn't get much easier than that. Oh--and thank your kids for letting you borrow a few of their balls. Luckily, I don't think they'll be missed.
Hooray for being back to crafting!
Love it!

Those are cute anyway but under your cloche they look SUPER CUTE! Thanks for sharing that idea. I saw your post over at "Weekend Wrap up Party".
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I wouldn't have thought they were made so simply! :)
