When a close friend of mine experienced to component approaches with her African Juju hat wall decor (you never want to know), she was in the market for a replacement. It is been a while given that I’ve been crafty and what superior time than the new calendar year for a new commence?! Fantastic timing. A great possibility to target on the beneficial and to mail some superior juju to a good friend.
What’s your first Diy undertaking of the new yr? On the lookout for and uncomplicated, fun and “GOOD” Do it yourself to jumpstart 2022? This is the excellent small challenge for you to check out! I felt empowered and encouraged so I opened up my Amazon application and ordered these materials:
Components I utilised (referral backlinks):
• cardboard circle (could easily make just one from recycled cardboard as well, in particular if you have been procrastinating the holiday cleanse up!)
• feather trim ( bought 2 of this feather trim and 1 of this feather fringe trim)
• aluminum pop best (taken off from can) to cling (could also use string or hold with press pins)
Tools:
very hot glue gun/sticks, scissors
What I did:
I observed the middle of my cardboard circle. From there, I drew a straight line to the outer edge.
Applying scissors, I slice alongside the line.
Up coming, working with hot glue alongside one side of the slash, I glued the other aspect a little on top to make a tiny little bit of a ‘bowl’-shape. It’s incredibly slight…just sufficient to give it a 3D look.
Then, defend your fingers ‘cuz that hot glue is Sizzling! Be very careful! (I used a capped pen to hold down the ribbon as necessary.) Identify placement and start out attaching the bottom of the feather journey to the cardboard circle. I labored my way all-around the outer edge.
Repeat in circles for complete coverage. Based on your provides, establish how close together to cover the cardboard. I alternated the 2 unique feather trims.
For the center, include a coordinating or identical colour silk flower. Or, like me, acquire a bit of leftover trim and roll to produce a “center” piece. Attach with sizzling glue.
Fill in with person feathers as necessary.
Attach hanging system of choice to the back with very hot glue.
Quick peasy! Significantly lighter and not as specific or heavy as the authentic factor but gorgeous none-the-less and particular for the reason that you produced it by yourself!
The final result:
Texture! Softness. Beauty!
