Wool Circles Wreath

I saw this on Pinterest and loved it from the beginning.  I couldn’t wait to make my own, but of course I had to make it in blues.

I created a pattern with the blues and the off whites too and really like the way it turned out!

It was a lot of circle cutting which is sooo hard on the hands (especially when you are cutting through thick wool), but I did it the same weekend I made these so I was already in the circle cutting mode!

These circles are simply threaded on a thick coat hanger size wire…I bought a “hank” of wire at the hardware store.  I am fairly sure the guys at the hardware store don’t call it a “hank” but I can’t think of what a gob of wire is called.  Anyway, when you get enough circles strung on the wire so they are really snug on it, bend your ends into a circle and attach them to each other.

Then fluff it up and attach a bow!  I used a scrap of vintage wool fabric to make this bow…I love the soft look of it. 

I am linking up to these great parties!
