Team Spirit Yarn Wreath

There's never a bad time to show a little pride. Make a Team Spirit Yarn Wreath to hang on your door during football, baseball or even hockey season. Wreath craft ideas don't have to be complicated - use supplies you have on hand as embellishments.


 

Materials:

• Yarn
• Grey, brown and orange felts
• Ribbon with footballs on it
• Other football embellishments
• Foam wreath
  
  
   

Instructions:

1. I wasn’t exactly sure how to dress up a wreath for a sports team, given that wreaths aren’t exactly… sporty. I like making felt flowers for my wreaths, so I thought I could modify the flowers and make them look more like pom poms.
    
2. I also thought I could use the felt to create a banner, where I would spell out “BEARS” with some wooden letters I bought on clearance forever ago but have never used.
    
3. Lastly, I decided to cut out a football shape out of cardboard and glue brown felt on it. With such a small wreath, there really wasn’t room for much more.
   
   
    
4. There are a lot of great resources online to teach you how to make felt flowers, so I won’t go into the details here. The way I modified it to make them look like pom poms was just by cutting the strips much closer together and only leaving about a quarter of an inch of solid felt at the base. This made them poof out more.
