How to make a DIY Holiday Felt Garland
Make a pattern by drawing a simple magnolia leaf pattern. I made a 3.5 inch leaf pattern out of card stock paper. You can make the template as large or small as you like. Then start cutting the leaves!
Tips on making a leaf pattern
- Use a pencil when drawing on the leaf. This makes it easier to make changes.
- Make sure and have ht ease of your leaf about an inch wide. This will make pinching and glueing together easier.
Add a spot of glue to the bottom center of the leaf and press together and hold. Allow to dry for 15 seconds. You are essentially pinching the bottom to give the felt some dimension.
Connect the leaves together by adding glue to the back of one leaf and attaching to the other. Again, hold the two pieces of felt together for 15 seconds to allow the glue to hold.
Continue making and connecting leaves together until you have made the length of garland desired.
Don’t you love how the DIY Felt Garland looks with the Boho stocking we made?
This looks so gorgeous and easy! Definitely going to be making this sometime this week.
How much felt did you buy and how long is the garland piece
hi there – you can get 8 leaves per piece of felt. The leaves are about 3 inches long when glued together. So you can get 24 inches go garland per felt sheet.
How much felt did you buy and how long is the garland piece you have pictured here?
Thank you for this! Very sweet garland!
