Kristen, over at the uber-cool Domestifluff blog, posted a tutorial for a gorgeous ruffly felt garland. Wouldn’t this be a lovely addition to wedding decor? Tutorial here.

Rachel December 21, 2009 at 6:35 pmI made two of these as xmas presents and added a big satin bow. They look beautiful, by my god, they took forever. - I used well over 300 circles for each, though my circles are bit more tightly packed because I didn't want the white styrofoam peeking through my green felt. This equates to about 3 yards of fabric. - If you trace your circles and then fold the fabric over, you can cut twice as many circles in the same amount of time. - Felt picks up every single piece of animal hair in its vicinity. I'd definitely create more things using this look in the future, but my thumbs need time to heal first.

Michelle January 6, 2010 at 5:45 pmI also made two of these for the holidays. The first one was red, light blue and white and the second one was red and white. I went to Joann Fabrics, used one of my coupons and got a circle cutter for like $12. I then spent evenings cutting out felt circles. While I was cutting, I thought about all of the other projects that I could use that cutter for (and I did use it for a bunch of projects this year already). The wreaths were adorable. One fell off the door and broke in three places, but we wired it back together. I would say that it took me about 5-7 hours a piece to make. Thanks for linking to the tutorial!
