DIYShowOff Juju hat wall decor tutorial
When a buddy of mine experienced to section methods with her African Juju hat wall decor (you do not want to know), she was in the current market for a alternative. It is been a while because I’ve been crafty and what superior time than the new yr for a fresh begin?! Fantastic timing. A perfect possibility to aim on the favourable and to mail some superior juju to a friend.
What is your initial Do it yourself undertaking of the new year? Wanting for and effortless, enjoyable and “GOOD” Do it yourself to jumpstart 2022? This is the great small project for you to test! I felt empowered and influenced so I opened up my Amazon app and ordered these provides:
Supplies I made use of (referral inbound links):
• cardboard circle (could quickly make a person from recycled cardboard as well, especially if you have been procrastinating the vacation clean up up!)
• feather trim ( procured 2 of this feather trim and 1 of this feather fringe trim)
• aluminum pop leading (removed from can) to hang (could also use string or hang with drive pins)
Applications:
warm glue gun/sticks, scissors
What I did:
I found the middle of my cardboard circle. From there, I drew a straight line to the outer edge.
Applying scissors, I minimize alongside the line.
Next, utilizing very hot glue together just one aspect of the reduce, I glued the other side a little bit on top rated to produce a tiny little bit of a ‘bowl’-shape. It is pretty slight…just sufficient to give it a 3D glimpse.
Then, protect your fingers ‘cuz that very hot glue is Scorching! Be careful! (I used a capped pen to keep down the ribbon as wanted.) Decide placement and start attaching the bottom of the feather trip to the cardboard circle. I labored my way all-around the outer edge.
Repeat in circles for full coverage. Based on your materials, identify how close alongside one another to go over the cardboard. I alternated the 2 different feather trims.
For the middle, insert a coordinating or identical color silk flower. Or, like me, just take a bit of leftover trim and roll to develop a “center” piece. Connect with hot glue.
Fill in with particular person feathers as desired.
Attach hanging system of option to the again with hot glue.
Easy peasy! Much lighter and not as in-depth or weighty as the real issue but attractive none-the-fewer and exclusive due to the fact you manufactured it oneself!
