Yarn Backdrops

Most of our brides find inspiration from Pintrest. Who doesnt?
So we get sent lots of photos of different decorations and design ideas that our brides want to use for their big day. Pintrest photos of yarn backdrops have been popping up in our email and we have been making lots of them. You can find instructions on how to makes these all over the internet. Here is how we did it. 


You will need
- Yarn
-Dowel Rod
-Scissors 


Measure and cut yarn to your desired length. Once cut, tie the top of the yarn to the dowel rod making a simple knot at the top.

There are several different ways to secure the yarn to the dowel rod but this is the easiest! 


Once you have finished attaching the yarn to the dowel rod, cut the bottom of your yarn to give it a finished look. 
This is a inexpensive way to add color and fun to your display. Looks great behind gift card tables, candy bars, drink stations, sign in table... pretty much anywhere!
We have also used this as a photo backdrop as well!


The backdrop in the photo above was made a while ago as our "practice" backdrop. Although we like to do a trial run when making all of our decorations, this one is so easy that you wont need to!

DIY

Paper Backdrops

 Paper backdrops are easy to make and dress up any situation. 
What you need:
-Paper/Cardstock
-Large sewing needle
-Scissors
-Jute/Yarn
-Large hole punch(optional)


Punch (or hand cut with scissors) desired color cardstock out with hole punch.
Next, thread your sewing needle with jute or yarn and poke a hole through the center of your circular cardstock cut outs.

Depending on the size of the needle hole and the thickness of your jute/yarn, you may need to tie a knot after each circle. Continue threading until you have reached your desired length.  
This can be hung from a dowel rod or attached to any surface with tape.


Larger versions of the above picture make great photo backdrops.
Smaller ones are great for accenting a particular area of your party.
