It&#8217;s something a little outside the norm but entirely handmade. As many of you may know, yarn wreaths are totally &#8216;in&#8217; right now. You can surf through Pinterest and find hundreds of different styles and techniques to making a nice big wreath for your front door or home decor. But there are absolutely no posts (or should i say &#8216;pins&#8217;) on making them miniature. I wanted to make some small ones that could be used to decorate smaller knick-knacks around the house.<\/p>\n<p>I made a quick trip to our local craft store for some yarn and felt&#8230;and got to work. Here&#8217;s the finished project!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joliesamuel.com\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/small_wreath_01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-983\" alt=\"small_wreath_01\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joliesamuel.com\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/small_wreath_01.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I experimented with some stiff felt to create the flowers you see here.
