12 Mistletoe Pomander

Holiday Décor Tutorial

Felt Mistletoe

I've always wanted to hang a mistletoe but could never find a sprig I liked. Probably because I've only ever looked at Target & Amazon online.

This year I decided to make my own pomander version out of felt.

Felt & Yarn

What does mistletoe look like? Google image brought up this stamp as a reference.

  8. I LOVE this! I tried to make felt mistletoe for our little tree, but it was a definite craft fail... yours looks so cute though, I'm jealous! : )

    And I'm seriously in love with the formatting on your tutorial - the labels above the photos and the photo collage that looks legit and professional!
