About this design:
Making garland has never been so simple. Choose from one of our fun felt mixes to make a 6' long garland perfect for your tree, mantle, or where ever your heart desires. All you need is a mix, needles, string/cord. If you want to go rogue, you could always purchase the round colors individually to create your own mix! Don't forget you can embellish these mixes with our felt focals or even crystal, glass & gemstones ... endless possibilities :)
What you’ll need: (buy products below)
- felt mix
- felt focals for making it my own
- hemp cord or the like
- #18 needle - chenille or embroidery

A Grondine says:Hello – The instructions say “hemp cord or the like” however, having never made something like this before or used a size 18 needle, I have no clue whatsoever what size hemp cord (or the like) to buy. I would appreciate any help, along with a few suggested Lima Beads product numbers (for cord.) Thanks!
