DIY String Tassel Garland

09/21/16

Feeling pretty good about the fact that I’ve managed two DIYs in the past two weeks! Finally getting back in the swing of things and I’m loving it. The two rooms in our house that I’ve been focusing on the most since we moved in are our master and the nursery. I’ve shared lots of peeks at our master on instagram but the nursery has been taking a little longer. But it’s almost ready! I had one bare wall I really needed to figure something out for and this DIY String Tassel Garland ended up being just what it needed.

DIY STRING TASSEL GARLAND

After I made my Giant Tassel Blanket I had the itch to make more. They’re so easy to make and add such a fun element to pretty much anything you put them on. I’m going with a little more of a boho vibe in the nursery this time around and a friend of mine made this gorgeous macrame mobile for me, which I’ll share more about later, so I thought the string tassels would tie in perfectly with that.

I got the idea when I found some super cute little gold macrame rings at Michaels and the rest just fell into place!

Tassels with Gold Hoops

STEP 1

Wrap your string around an object that is approximately the length you want your tassels to be. Depending on how full you want them, you can wrap the string more. I wrapped mine 100 times around. Cut off the end of the string once you’re done wrapping.

Step 2

Cut a piece of string about 8 inches long and slide it underneath all your wrapped string and then slide it up towards the top.

Step 3

Tie your ring to the piece of string you just moved to the top tightly, so the rest of the wrapped string gets pulled together.

Step 4

Slide your scissors underneath all the string on the opposite end of the ring and cut straight across. Fluff out your tassel so it looks full and even.

Step 5

Cut another piece of string a little bit longer than you want your whole garland to be. Space out your tassels and tie each one individually to the string and then you’re ready to hang!

          Hi! I bought them at Michaels but couldn’t find a link so I must have linked something from Office Depot? haha. They are 2 inch size – you should be able to find them at any craft store!

It was about a year ago that we were getting ready to rip out this bathroom and start demo. The last bathroom in our home that needed updating and I had so much fun designing it! You probably wouldn’t know it was a kids bathroom but I’ve always been a huge believer in not having to sacrifice beauty when designing spaces for my kids. I love the challenge of keeping it in line with my aesthetic while still making it functional and fun for them. But I did put their toothbrushes away for this pic 🤪 happy hump day! #breinspired

I’ve watered them TWICE already since bringing them home which you know is a big deal for me 🤣 they may actually survive 🤞🏻still totally clueless on what color to paint our house but I think I found a solution for our vinyl windows! Will be sharing in stories today for anyone else with the same problem!

Walking through an @anthropologie store is an experience that hits all your senses in exactly the right spots. And makes you want to buy all the things you never knew you needed 😂 they have a way of creating an aesthetic that appeals to everyone and I’m so excited I get to share more of this amazing company with you guys that I’ve admired for so long! #anthropartner #anthroliving #myanthropologie

The only lighting we have in here is overhead so we’ve lacked that cozy night time glow while watching tv, reading a book or just hanging. So not only are these pretty but they’re practical too - good lighting is a total game changer and I’m all about setting the right mood for a space. Totally worth hiring an electrician to make my sconce dreams come true! 😍
My little peanut. Clocking in at a whopping 6% on My little peanut. Clocking in at a whopping 6% on the weight charts 🤣 All my babes have been small and I’ve talked about my breastfeeding struggles before. Dilly had her 6 month check up yesterday and even though her numbers aren’t where they “should” be she’s perfectly happy and healthy. And as a mama, that’s all I can ask for. I know she’s all good, even if I’m constantly doubting my supply. This was around the time I stopped nursing with Hawk & Eloise but it feels different this time. And she won’t take a bottle so there’s that too 🙈 So as long as I am still nursing I’m continuing to take my postnatal @ritual vitamins. They’re filled with 15 traceable nutrients to help support this postpartum stage which I love as a nursing mama. Plus they are easy to take and minty fresh! And I love their clean, vegan-friendly formula. They are a great reminder to take care of myself so I can take care of her 🤍 use code BREPURPOSED10 for 10% off your first 3 months! #ritualpartner
