Thrifted Tree Ornaments

I’ll be making some projects from repurposed materials in the coming weeks. First off, I made some more trees from felted wool sweaters — a miniature version of my thrifted trees from last year. This version has a new template to go with it. So get some wool sweaters, wash and dry them, cut 15 circles according to the template, string them together and hang them or add them to your miniature winter village. I’m hoping to make one of those this year, but we’ll see. You know, because everyone needs a miniature winter village, right?

  1. So cute! What I am equally amazed about is the vintage ornament in the background. I have some of those that belonged to my husband’s mother. Sweet!

  2. Thanks for this post. It was just the inspiration I was looking for, especially since I’ve shrinked so many sweaters last year 🙂
    I love the felted trees!!

  3. I have popped in from time to time looking for little crafts for my kids. I saw the Thrifted Holiday Trees last year. I love this newer tinier version and I can’t wait to make some!

  4. I found your site through Sassy Sites. Love your holiday trees. Can’t wait to make it with my toddlers and preschoolers. Will do the smaller version. Thanks for your sharing.
