Hi There Doodlebug Friends!Today I am here to share with you my Frosty
Friends project for Doodlebug Design. I just adore this line so much! So - I just have to
say that I am so blessed to be surrounded by such inspirational and
creative friends - I was totally inspired to make my project after I saw
my amazing friend and Doodlebug Design Team Coordinator Lori Allred
demonstrate how to make this adorable and absolutely super creative way
to make this cute wreath on one of her upcoming
My Craft Channel segments. If you haven't checked out her awesome
Inspired by Pinterest shows you should!
Now at first glance this looks like just an ordinary wreath - but let me show you what I used to make it - you will be amazed :)
This
wreath is make using a 12 inch foam wreath form and these microfiber
dusters (like a Swiffer) that I picked up from the local Dollar Store! I
LOVE how the dusters resemble a flock of fluffy snow! Perfect for the
Frost Friends line!
To
make the wreath you just need to peel apart the duster portion. It
comes apart very easily and you will get 2 of the strips like the one
above, out of each duster. Then simply hot glue the dusters around the
wreath form until it is completely covered.
I
then had a lot of fun using all sorts of elements from the Frosty
Friends line - I cut out a huge paper snowflake from my Silhouette
digital die cut machine and then layered a snowman from the
Mix and Match Snowman Craft Kit. I added some stickers from the Frosty Friends
This and That Sticker sheet and the
Icon Sticker sheet.
I then added some folded paper rosettes and topped them with some cute winter critters from the Frosty Friends
Doodlepops. I also added some
Winter Sprinkles and some
Sugar Coated Cardstock circles
that I punched out with some paper punches and added Snowflake
Doodlepops and beautiful white buttons tied with bakers twine.
Thanks
for stopping by today and don't be afraid to think out of the box when
it comes to crafting! I had so much fun repurposing the dusters into a
fun and fluffy winter wreath! Happy crafting!
