Holidays DIY: A Felt Garland for your Tree

December 16, 2010 by Linda Lanese

Elizabeth little tree is a simple one; she picked it up at a garage sale in Texas. She suspects it was a fixture in a retail shop originally. She wanted to keep it simple so a single string of white LED lights and a handmade garland are all that adorn it.  While you are on her site Elizabeth Carls, getting this tutorial, check out all the other places Elizabeth shows and sells her art.  Elizabeth Elsewhere

Making the garland was easy and something the whole family can do.
Materials you’ll need:

A handful of felted wool beads (you can find my tutorial for making them here)

A yard or more of linen thread (upholstery thread, embroidery floss, or lace weight yarn would work also)

Bees Wax cake (optional)

A tapestry needle and scissors
