Cozy Crafting with Country Living

I am so, so excited to share my sweet little "Yarn Flowers" craft that is in the February issue of Country Living out now (go get a copy!!) Editor Jourdan Crouch and photographer Kate Mathis did a phenomenal job with the photograph!

Making pom-poms is such a fun winter weekend project and in when glued to branches, they become such a pretty addition to your home's decor.

When I originally came up with this craft concept, I had made the pom poms the old fashioned way...(cut a donut shape out of cardboard and wrap, wrap, wrap,). A fine way to do it, but tedious. So, when CL asked me to test out these fun little tools from Clover, I was more than excited. They helped speed along the process for sure!

For the how-to, head on over to the CL website. (It is #2 in the slideshow)

And thanks again to Country Living for including me :)
