How to Make a Garland for Spring with Wood Beads and Spools of Thread
Step 1: Gather Supplies
Supplies Needed:
- Spools of Thread - we used vintage wooden spools from thrift stores, in pastel colors
- Wood Beads
- Twine
- Scissors
Step 2: Cut a length of twine for your garland.
Step 3: Tie a loop at one end of the twine.
Step 4: Wrap packing tape around the other end of the twine to make it easier to thread beads and spools of thread onto it.
Step 5: Begin adding wood beads and spools of thread to your garland in any order or combination you want.
You can do a random order, or follow a pattern as I did here: one bead, one spool of thread, two beads, one spool of thread, repeat.
Continue until the garland is finished.
Tie a loop in the other end of the twine.
It's ready to hang!
The pastel colors of this spring garland make it a perfect fit for Easter, but it's also very Spring-like and works for the whole season!
Pair it with fun DIY yarn cactus plants or yarn pom-pom plants to complete your spring decor.
