When a friend of mine experienced to aspect techniques with her African Juju hat wall decor (you never want to know), she was in the market place for a substitution. It is been a while given that I’ve been crafty and what far better time than the new yr for a clean begin?! Great timing. A fantastic possibility to concentrate on the positive and to deliver some good juju to a mate. 

What is your very first Do it yourself undertaking of the new yr? Wanting for and quick, entertaining and “GOOD” Do it yourself to jumpstart 2022? This is the ideal minor job for you to attempt! I felt empowered and inspired so I opened up my Amazon app and requested these materials: 

Products I utilised (referral links):

• cardboard circle (could very easily make a single from recycled cardboard too, specifically if you have been procrastinating the holiday thoroughly clean up!)

• feather trim ( ordered 2 of this feather trim and 1 of this feather fringe trim)

• aluminum pop leading (eliminated from can) to cling (could also use string or hang with push pins)

Tools:

scorching glue gun/sticks, scissors

What I did:

I found the centre of my cardboard circle. From there, I drew a straight line to the outer edge. 

Applying scissors, I minimize alongside the line. 

Next, applying incredibly hot glue alongside a single aspect of the minimize, I glued the other aspect a little on leading to generate a tiny little bit of a ‘bowl’-form. It’s very slight…just plenty of to give it a 3D glimpse.

Then, safeguard your fingers ‘cuz that hot glue is Very hot! Be very careful! (I applied a capped pen to keep down the ribbon as needed.) Establish placement and get started attaching the bottom of the feather journey to the cardboard circle. I labored my way close to the outer edge. 

Repeat in circles for total protection. Centered on your provides, figure out how near collectively to cover the cardboard. I alternated the 2 various feather trims. 

For the centre, increase a coordinating or identical colour silk flower. Or, like me, just take a little bit of leftover trim and roll to produce a “center” piece. Connect with hot glue. 

Fill in with person feathers as required.

Connect hanging system of selection to the again with very hot glue. 

Straightforward peasy! A lot lighter and not as in depth or significant as the serious issue but stunning none-the-considerably less and unique simply because you made it on your own!

The final result:

Texture! Softness. Natural beauty!
