I have a few projects on my to do list from my Pinterest post; however, I haven't been able to start on those projects because I want to find all the supplies at thrift stores and avoid buying anything new. This has proven to be quite challenging. I want to find a foam wreath for that yarn wreath and seriously, they are no where to be found! Soon though, I'm determined.
In the mean time I was at the thrift store earlier this week and I found some things for a DIY project I have seen on pinterest but never actually pinned it to my board.
Fabric Wall Hangings
I envisioned this for Finley's room, so when I saw the cross stitch rings at the thrift store for $0.25 a piece, I snagged them up and knew it was fate that I had to do this project.
What you need: Scrap fabric, and cross stitch rings- any amount, any size
 |
| I already had the fabric at home- so this was no additional cost to me. |
 |
| I bought 2- 8", 2- 10" and 1-12" rings |
The process is crazy easy, I think this whole project took 20 minutes out of my day. This is great when you have a toddler constantly trying to steal the scissors and chase the dog with them (ahhhh!)
 |
| Place the scrap fabric over the inner ring |
|
|
|
 |
| Put the outer ring over the fabric and pull the fabric as tight as you can |
 |
| Cut excess fabric in the back |
I quickly hung them up in Finley's room and I just love them. And the great thing is that I can change out the fabric anytime I want.
Total cost of this frugal craft- $1.25! Can you believe it?
I love it! I am totally going to do this.
