Easy Christmas Felt Garland or BraceletThis is an easy Christmas garland you can make with felt. I actually made the garland last year and used it again this year for the stair rail. I am showing you the same concept again, but as a bracelet. You can also make it as a necklace, and of course a garland too!

Supplies:

  • felt
  • pin
  • thread
  • ruler
  • Sharpie
  • Exacto Knife, scissors or rotary cutter
  • sewing machine - optional
  • sew on snaps - optional

Steps:

  1. Measure 1" inch strips of felt and cut out.
  2. Easy Christmas Felt Garland or Bracelet - cut one inch strips

  3. In the center of the strips cut slits about 1.5-2" every 1" inch. I had a total of 5 slits, the more slits you have the tighter the garland. The less slits the more spread out or loose the garland will look (it all varies depending on your preference). Cut the slits for both pieces of felt.
  4. Easy Christmas Felt Garland or Bracelet - mark slits down the center of the strip

  5. Using a pin secure both pieces of felt together at the top of the strip.
  6. Easy Christmas Felt Garland or Bracelet - secure both pieces of felt with a pin at the top

  7. Now grab the top of the strip (where the pin is at) and tuck it into the first slit. Then pull, and continue tucking in the next slit and so forth until you're done.
  8. Easy Christmas Felt Garland or Bracelet - hold top of strip

  9. For a bracelet, you can measure your wrist and cut that length than repeat steps #1 to #4. You can either use sew on snaps to secure the bracelet, or just use a pin to secure.

  11. If you are making a garland, you can repeat this process until you have enough to make your garland. Using a sewing machine, sew the edges together to make one long garland (or you could hand sew). You could also buy longer felt and sew less.
  12. Easy Christmas Felt Garland or Bracelet - pile of garland before wrapping on stair railing
