Easy Yarn Craft...Just in Time for SPRING!!!


It's simple to make these beautiful vases using inexpensive drinking glasses and yarn!

YOU'LL NEED:
  • Glue dots
  • Yarn
  • A drinking glass, jar or cylinder
  • Scissors
  • Beads or buttons
1. Use a glue dot to adhere one end of a skein of yarn to the glass, an inch or so from the lip.
2. Wind yarn around the glass, being careful not to overlap. Pull the yarn taut as you work, but do not stretch it.
3. When you've covered as much of the vase as you want, cut the yarn and attach the other end to the glass with a glue dot.
4. Decorate the vase with a yarn bow, or use glue dots to adhere beads or buttons, as desired.
