Are you ready to Party???
I have been so excited for this day to come so I can see what you have created with pool noodles!
Let me just tell ya, I had a time with mine...like a hard time figuring out what in the world to do with it.
First, I thought I would make 2 or 3 pool noodle projects, then life and vacation happened, and I wondered if I would even get around to making 1 project!
My first project wasn’t necessarily a fail, but it was pretty lame, so I settled on a wreath...actually the easiest wreath ever made...not perfect by any means, but cute. And since it’s the first wreath I have ever made, I am pretty pleased that it isn’t lopsided!
Here is how I made mine...
1. I bent my noodle into a circle and duck taped it together...classy, I know!
2. I ripped strips of fabric (my old curtains) and wrapped them around the noodle. I simply pinned them to the noodle...no glue required!
3. I made 3 different sized coffee filter flowers and pinned them to the noodle.
4. I made 3 rolled flower rosettes and pinned them in the middle of the coffee filter flowers.
That’s it...no glue, just a noodle, some duck tape, old fabric, coffee filters, and pins...to easy!!!
Now for the coolest party on the planet!!!

Due to having some of my content and posts stolen by no good lazy people who don't do their own projects, I am sorry to have to truncate (shorten) my feeds. Please don't hold it against me, and continue reading, because I do love you and want to share my tutorials with you ;)
Love,
Jessica

What a fun idea for a party! I actually looked at pool noodles when I was out yesterday but they are $5 here, just too much for me to spend on a pool noodle - yes, I'm a extremely cheap!! Yous came out awesome. :)
