DIYShowOff Juju hat wall decor tutorial
When a friend of mine had to component means with her African Juju hat wall decor (you don’t want to know), she was in the marketplace for a alternative. It is been a even though considering that I have been crafty and what superior time than the new calendar year for a fresh new start?! Ideal timing. A excellent opportunity to target on the positive and to mail some superior juju to a good friend.
What’s your very first Do-it-yourself challenge of the new yr? Seeking for and simple, pleasurable and “GOOD” Do-it-yourself to jumpstart 2022? This is the excellent minor challenge for you to consider! I felt empowered and impressed so I opened up my Amazon app and purchased these supplies:
Materials I applied (referral inbound links):
• cardboard circle (could simply make a single from recycled cardboard much too, especially if you’ve been procrastinating the holiday clean up up!)
• feather trim ( bought 2 of this feather trim and 1 of this feather fringe trim)
• aluminum pop leading (eliminated from can) to cling (could also use string or cling with force pins)
Resources:
hot glue gun/sticks, scissors
What I did:
I uncovered the heart of my cardboard circle. From there, I drew a straight line to the outer edge.
Working with scissors, I lower together the line.
Following, applying incredibly hot glue together just one facet of the lower, I glued the other side slightly on top to develop a little bit of a ‘bowl’-condition. It is quite slight…just sufficient to give it a 3D look.
Then, shield your fingers ‘cuz that incredibly hot glue is Incredibly hot! Be very careful! (I utilised a capped pen to hold down the ribbon as necessary.) Determine placement and begin attaching the bottom of the feather trip to the cardboard circle. I labored my way all-around the outer edge.
Repeat in circles for complete protection. Dependent on your provides, decide how near collectively to deal with the cardboard. I alternated the 2 various feather trims.
For the middle, increase a coordinating or exact shade silk flower. Or, like me, take a bit of leftover trim and roll to develop a “center” piece. Attach with hot glue.
Fill in with individual feathers as necessary.
Connect hanging system of decision to the back with scorching glue.
Uncomplicated peasy! Significantly lighter and not as detailed or significant as the authentic detail but lovely none-the-much less and unique due to the fact you produced it yourself!
The end result:
Texture! Softness. Attractiveness!

I’m hooked and program to develop quite a few extra! A lot more feather trim as been purchased! I have to have a fluffier one particular! A feather boa would do the job as perfectly (despite the fact that a minimal messier)! Probably some rattan coasters for the heart or a coordinating silk peony would be attractive too. I’ll occur again and submit extra shots. Fascinated in adding yours to the characteristic? Submit your juju hat picture to thediyshowoff at gmail.
