When a buddy of mine had to portion means with her African Juju hat wall decor (you really do not want to know), she was in the marketplace for a replacement. It’s been a though given that I’ve been crafty and what better time than the new calendar year for a new get started?! Ideal timing. A best chance to concentrate on the good and to send out some good juju to a buddy. 

What’s your first Do it yourself venture of the new 12 months? Wanting for and easy, enjoyable and “GOOD” Do it yourself to jumpstart 2022? This is the perfect very little challenge for you to attempt! I felt empowered and impressed so I opened up my Amazon application and requested these materials: 

Products I utilized (referral links):

• feather trim ( acquired 2 of this feather trim and 1 of this feather fringe trim)

• aluminum pop best (eliminated from can) to hold (could also use string or hang with thrust pins)

Applications:

scorching glue gun/sticks, scissors

What I did:

I discovered the center of my cardboard circle. From there, I drew a straight line to the outer edge. 

Using scissors, I slice together the line.

Then, shield your fingers ‘cuz that very hot glue is Very hot! Be careful! (I employed a capped pen to maintain down the ribbon as required.) Figure out placement and commence attaching the base of the feather excursion to the cardboard circle. I worked my way close to the outer edge. 

Repeat in circles for entire protection. Based mostly on your supplies, decide how shut with each other to protect the cardboard. I alternated the 2 distinctive feather trims. 

For the center, increase a coordinating or same coloration silk flower. Or, like me, get a bit of leftover trim and roll to produce a “center” piece. Attach with sizzling glue. 

Fill in with individual feathers as wanted.

Connect hanging system of decision to the again with warm glue. 

Straightforward peasy! Considerably lighter and not as in-depth or large as the real matter but stunning none-the-a lot less and distinctive for the reason that you produced it oneself!
