What you will need:
Embroidery hoop (any size)
Your choice of fabric
Artificial greenery
Twine
Scissors
Hot glue gun or pins
-
- Choose an embroidery hoop. They’re readily available in multiple sizes at craft supply stores.
-
- Choose a swatch of fabric that coordinates with your decor. You can also display vintage lace and handkerchiefs, heirloom embroidery or remnants of up cycled sweaters and flannels.
-
- Arrange fabric over the smaller inner hoop, and place the larger outer hoop over the top, tightening the screw. Coordinating fabrics can be layered for an interesting look.
-
- Trim edges of fabric, or tuck behind hoop and secure lightly with pins or a dab of hot glue if using material you’d rather not cut.
-
- Add embellishments such as artificial greenery, paper flowers or burlap bows. Display one or multiple hoops in a grouping. They’re especially charming when paired with framed photos, signs and vintage dishes on a gallery wall. Swap out fabrics seasonally for fresh looks throughout the year.
