DIY and Crafts — yarn

A few weeks ago I shared a neon pink and orange fringe pendant light that I made using my Glowforge laser cutter. At that time I told you guys how many more ideas I had for light fixtures using the Glowforge. Well today’s the day I’m sharing one more DIY light fixture! This DIY yarn hanging pendant light combines my favorite elements of wall weavings and fiber art.  It is an amazing statement pendant light perfect for any space. Just look at the braided roving and chunky yarn hanging from the natural wood box. And that mint and gold pendant light – it’s just...

I have been so excited about my newest light fixture DIY. This DIY faux woven yarn pendant light fixture takes the ever popular wall weavings and turns them into something functional. A pendant light! But not only is it covered with all the textural yarn, it can actually be made without any actual weaving! Yes! You heard that right. This fixture is made from my favorite faux weaving technique of using braided yarn, tassels, and roving to create all the fun patterns and texture of a traditional wall weaving but with half the work! Isn’t it gorgeous?! Just look at...

During my latest shopping trip to JOANN stores (which happens to be like once a week right now), I found the cutest white bowl planter with a white wire stand.

The first, this DIY yarn wrapped planter, I will be sharring with you today. The other I hope to share with you tomorrow...

The post DIY Faux Latch Hook Pillow is sponsored by JOANN. The best place to find the crafting supplies for every DIY project on your list. Thank you so much for supporting the brands that keep me crafting my heart out! While the cooler weather may not have hit Texas yet, the fact that it is September means that is officially okay for me to start crafting with all the fall things. So I am bringing out all the pumpkins, fall colors, and yarn to make my home full of cozy fall decor! This faux latch hook pillow has been on my mind...

Have you all seen the latest trend that keeps poping up everywhere? While it’s definitely not new, woven cane is making a resurgence in home decor and crafting. I have seen it slowly trickle in the last year or so, and was finally convinced to try my hand at crafting with it. While a woven cane piece can be expensive (about $14 for a 1′ by 2′ piece), you don’t need much for crafting a fun DIY woven cane latch hook wall hanging like this one I made this past week. I love the natural wood tones that it brings...
