Instructions

This Christmas wreath craft has been made using upholstery fabric swatch samples that have been cut into strips.

Start by bending your coat hanger into a circle. Leave the hook at the top to hang it with.

Take your fabric and cut it into around 12 inch (30 cm) strips that are 2 inch (5 cm) wide.

Take your fabric strip and tie it into a knot around the wire circle. Keep doing this until the circle can no longer fit any more fabric strips on it.

This is a very simple craft but it looks great when completed so stick with it.

You will need lots of fabric strips for this project it will depend on how tight and full you want your wreath.

When you are finished use some plastic holly, bells or other decorations to decorate your wreath.

My Craft Desk Glow Up

I just bought this floral desk pad for my craft workspace, and I honestly can’t stop staring at it—it’s that pretty. I was long overdue for an upgrade. I’d been using one of those standard green self-healing mats from the craft store forever. While they do the job, let’s be real—they’re not exactly inspiring. I found myself feeling a bit “meh” every time I sat down to work, and as someone who lives for colour, texture, and creative energy, that just wasn’t cutting it anymore so I went on an Amazon search.

Enter this gorgeous floral desk pad. From the moment I unrolled it, I was in love. The design is soft and feminine without being too busy—just a lovely, calming mix of vintage florals that fits right in with my “current” creative vibe. Let’s be fair, I may be on a different vibe next month.

It adds a splash of personality to my workspace, and it honestly makes me want to sit down and create. That little shift in mood? Totally worth it.

Functionally, it’s spot on. The surface is smooth and easy to work on—perfect for my laptop, sketching, journaling, or even placing my cutting tools when I’m working on papercrafts. The anti-slip base keeps everything in place, even when I’m sliding papers or tools around. It’s generously sized, too, which means I don’t feel cramped while I work. It is not a self-healing mat, so for that you will need something else. 

If you’re like me and your desk is not just a workspace but your creative sanctuary, this pad is such a beautiful upgrade. It’s the kind of little detail that sparks joy every single time I walk into my studio. Whether you’re crafting, journaling, designing, or even just using it as a stylish mousepad, I couldn’t recommend it more. This one’s a keeper!
