DIYShowOff Juju hat wall decor tutorial
When a friend of mine experienced to part ways with her African Juju hat wall decor (you really don’t want to know), she was in the sector for a alternative. It’s been a while considering the fact that I have been crafty and what better time than the new calendar year for a clean start out?! Perfect timing. A fantastic chance to emphasis on the positive and to ship some fantastic juju to a buddy.
What’s your 1st Do-it-yourself task of the new 12 months? Wanting for and simple, exciting and “GOOD” Diy to jumpstart 2022? This is the excellent small project for you to attempt! I felt empowered and encouraged so I opened up my Amazon app and requested these supplies:
Supplies I made use of (referral hyperlinks):
• cardboard circle (could easily make 1 from recycled cardboard much too, specially if you have been procrastinating the holiday clean up!)
• feather trim ( purchased 2 of this feather trim and 1 of this feather fringe trim)
• aluminum pop top (eradicated from can) to hold (could also use string or hold with force pins)
Equipment:
very hot glue gun/sticks, scissors
What I did:
I identified the middle of my cardboard circle. From there, I drew a straight line to the outer edge.
Applying scissors, I slash alongside the line.
Subsequent, applying sizzling glue alongside one particular facet of the minimize, I glued the other aspect a little on top rated to develop a minor little bit of a ‘bowl’-form. It’s pretty slight…just ample to give it a 3D look.
Then, guard your fingers ‘cuz that sizzling glue is Warm! Be mindful! (I made use of a capped pen to keep down the ribbon as necessary.) Identify placement and start out attaching the base of the feather journey to the cardboard circle. I labored my way about the outer edge.
Repeat in circles for full coverage. Dependent on your materials, establish how near alongside one another to cover the cardboard. I alternated the 2 various feather trims.
For the centre, include a coordinating or very same colour silk flower. Or, like me, choose a little bit of leftover trim and roll to generate a “center” piece. Attach with sizzling glue.
Fill in with unique feathers as necessary.
Attach hanging system of alternative to the back again with hot glue.
Straightforward peasy! Much lighter and not as detailed or heavy as the authentic issue but attractive none-the-less and special because you created it on your own!
The result:
Texture! Softness. Beauty!

I’m hooked and approach to create many extra! Extra feather trim as been ordered! I need a fluffier just one! A feather boa would get the job done as nicely (despite the fact that a minimal messier)! Probably some rattan coasters for the centre or a coordinating silk peony would be wonderful also. I’ll occur back and publish a lot more images. Fascinated in including yours to the characteristic?

How about you? Prepared to get crafty, inventive and encouraged in 2022?
