gaga for garlands

April 6, 2011

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Things that equal “Spring” to me:

*bright pink nail polish (like barbie pink… or more accurately, OPI Pompeii Purple)
*iced tea with limeade
*wearing shorts for my run (mom and I are training for a half marathon in May again)
*that lovely feeling when you get in the car and it’s pleasantly warm inside  (“car warm”)
*planning Burke’s birthday party- can’t wait to show you all the details
*bright colors all in a row…

 

…which brings me to my current love for garlands! I know they’re just rows of triangles, but I can’t seem to get enough garland-making lately. All of my paper and fabric scraps turn into little garlands and buntings.

Here are the fabric scraps from my round inspiration boards…

…and here are the scraps from my felted ROY G BIV wreath…

…and the paper scraps from my “Cling Tightly and Let Go” banner are now also in ROY G BIV order, sewn into a garland and hanging in my craft room.

What Spring Things do you love?

    I have been dying to make some little triangle garlands too! Those are adorable!

    Good luck with your half marathon training! I did my first last November! It was fun but I think it'll be a while before I do another!

    These garlands are all perfect!! I agree, I've been putting little strands of them all around for the past few months, I just can't seem to get enough!
