Embroidery Hoop Christmas Banner

Hey Pebbles friends and fans, Becki here. Christmas is right around the corner. I love Christmas and I love making my own Christmas decorations. I put a little spin on a traditional banner to create a banner to hang in my home for Christmas this year. I used 3 embroidery hoops, die cuts, stickers, and patterned papers from the brand new Holly Jolly collection.

The first thing I did was to fill the inside of these hoops with patterned paper. I used a strong liquid adhesive to adhere the embroidery hoops to the patterned papers. After the adhesive dried, I carefully cut around each embroidery hoop with an craft knife.

I wanted the banner to have the word “JOY” in it so I hand cut the letters from the blue snowflake patterned paper. I chose the blue patterned paper because I wanted a contrasting color against the red and green backgrounds.

Then I chose a few die cuts, stickers, and red buttons to embellish the banner.

I couldn’t be happier with how this project came together. I love that it’s just a little bit different than a traditional banner because of the embroidery hoops.

The letters are adhered to the patterned paper on the back of the hoop with dimensional adhesive. I added die cuts and buttons to the front of the hoops. I made sure to use a string liquid adhesive so the embellishments stayed in place when I hung my banner.

This project looks complex but it really isn’t it came together very easily. What home decor Christmas projects have you created? You should try creating your own embroidery hoop Christmas banner. It’s easy and SO cute. Thanks for stopping by the Pebbles blog. I’ll see you again soon!

Hello friends! Amanda here today. Thank you for stopping by the Pebbles blog. Today’s project is trendy, fun, easy, and inexpensive–my specialty!

I am still smitten by the pineapple trend. They are just so bright and colorful. They are perfect for summer and super cheery in winter. This DIY pineapple hoop decor would be perfect year-round!

Making the pineapple is as easy as it looks. I punched out 3/4″ squares, gently bent them on the diagonal and adhered them to the paper with tiny glue dots. You could make a mini pineapple with small squares, or a giant pineapple with extra large squares.

Making the leaves was just as easy as punching the yellow squares. I free-hand cut several spiky leaves and alternately arranged them starting at the top of the hoop. I added a few leaves here-and-there to add more texture to the leaves. I also bent the leaves slightly to add dimension.

And I couldn’t resist a cute pom-pom border.

To make the pineapple, start by punching or cutting several 3/4″ squares. You can also vary the size of the square depending on your project. Gently fold the squares to give them some dimension. Experiment with the arrangement and size of the pineapple inside of your embroidery hoop until you make one that works perfectly with your project. Free-hand cut some leaves to size.

Adhere pom pom trim to the back of the hoop with a small bead of hot glue.

Turkey Hoop Decor

Hi Pebbles fans! Amanda here today. I so love November. The weather finally gets to a chill, it’s my birthday month, and we get to have a Thanksgiving feast. It seriously is my favorite month of the year. I also love embroidery hoop decor. Embroidery hoops are inexpensive and widely available which makes them perfect for seasonal decor.

This happy turkey hoop decor comes together in a snap and is super easy to make. I love how the shape of the turkey feathers follow the line of the hoop. This project is kid friendly, too (with a little help with the glue gun).

When creating a piece of embroidery hoop decor, sometimes I adhere the paper to the top of the hoop, sometimes I adhere it to the bottom of the hoop. Since this turkey has a lot of dimension, I decided to adhere the paper to the back of the hoop.

I like to hide the embroidery hoop attachment with a pretty bow. Burlap adds a soft, rustic touch to this Thanksgiving decor.

To create the turkey feathers, score and fold three 12″ strips of patterned paper into accordion fans. These strips of paper are 3 1/4″, 2 3/4″, and 2 1/4″ wide. Vary the width of the paper depending on the size of your hoop. I used a 9″ embroidery hoop for this project.

Keep the three layers of your fan together by stapling the ends together with a mini stapler. This will keep your fan layers from flying all over the place.

After you have stapled the ends of your fan together, put a huge blob of hot glue on a circle punch and place the end of the fan right in the middle. Hold down the paper fan until the glue dries completely.

Two words: Slick. Writer. This magical pen makes the turkey’s eyes possible. Draw a black spot on a white enamel dot and you have instant eyes. Making a paper turkey is way easier than it seems. Layer two brown circle punches (1 1/2″ and 1″), trim a beak and a wattle out of scrap paper, and adhere the eyes. So easy.

Add a festive sentiment with Thickers, adhere the embroidery hoop to the paper and trim any excess with a craft knife. Top with a cute bow. Friendly Turkey Day reminder! If you are cooking a frozen turkey next week, now is a good time to put it in the fridge to thaw. Only one week to go!

Happy Thanksgiving!
Amanda

Embroidery Hoop Fall Decor

Hi friends, Becki here. I’m so excited to share with you this embroidery hoop Fall decor that I created with the Harvest collection. Fall is my favorite season, hands down. I love everything about it. One of my favorite things about Fall is the colors and Fall decorations. This collection is focused on home, cooking, and baking. I created this to hang in my kitchen during Fall months.

I started with a few supplies from the Harvest collection.

I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut “Harvest.” I used a ruler to measure the width of the embroidery hoop a little below the center of the hoop.

After I had the letters cut and measured, I adhered the embroidery hoop with heavy duty liquid glue. Then I adhered the letters with dimensional adhesive.

Then I got started with the fun part, embellishments.

The big puffy “homemade sticker is my favorite part of this project. I layered it on top of a cute cutting board die cut and an apple die cut. At the bottom I adhered a branch die cut to the embroidery hoop. This die cut isn’t attached to the background paper, just to the hoop.

To finish embellishing my embroidery hoop I grabbed these three adorable spice jar die cuts. I used some red and white twin from the Harvest collection to tie a bow around one of the jars. I adhered these jars to the outside of the hoop. These die cuts are not adhered to the background either.

The last thing I did was cut the background paper away from the embroidery hoop with a craft knife.

Happy Fall, I’m so excited to hang this in my kitchen to enjoy during the Fall months. What is your favorite Fall decoration?
