Easy DIY Yarn Letters for Christmas
Don’t you just LOVE yarn? To me, it screams winter and cozy! This project was created using Lion Brand Yarns and I made these adorable HOPE yarn letters to help my family celebrate the Christmas season!! They are just adorable and oversized and just a dream! My kitchen is more festive than ever and I can thank these bright letters for that!
The yarns I used were from the Martha Stewart Crafts Lofty Wool Blend collection. The green is called “seedling green” and the red is called “red dahlia”. Both of the yarns are saturated colors and matched the whimsical Christmas decor in my kitchen perfectly! We always use candy trees, peppermint sticks, and gingerbread houses that we’ve created in our kitchen. This is a tradition for us and my kids still look forward to the time that we put these together. Don’t stop crafting with your kids as they get older, I promise that they still want to do it no matter how mature they are!
I used a tutorial by Bailey at Let Birdz Fly to guide me through wrapping the letters..she really does a great job!! The Lofty Wool Blend Yarn is thick and slightly bumpy, which is perfect for a heavier, winter, cozy, sweater-look! I just adore the texture and it add so much to my Christmas kitchen.
I finished off my letters {which I got from Hobby Lobby } with a sweet pom-pom ribbon, which I also used on my “JOY” Christmas Countdown…LOVE IT!
