I've been into "wrapping" since Christmas... [check out these glittery chord wrapped ornaments]...but this "wrapping" is a little different: it includes yarn and electrical wire!?
Adam had some extra electrical wire laying around so I decided to "borrow" it and making something crafty for my mom for Christmas. She loves to sew, quilt & embroider so I thought a little <3SEW sign would be perfect for her craft room.
I started by twisting and bending the electrical wire into <3-S-E-W. After it was the way I wanted it, I simply wrapped the entire thing in yarn. This took a lot of time and patience but I think it was definitely worth it!
I loved the idea of giving a personalized gift and this fun, yarn-wrapped wire sign was perfect for my mom's craft room!
I was looking into making some writing with wire. It's definately on my to do list. Bet your mum really likes the sign you've made.
ReplyDeleteLove this! I have wire and embroidery thread, maybe I'll be able to do something with that! :) Thanks for linking up to the Craft Yourself Crazy link party!
