While we styled this piece over a bed, this piece of wall art would also be stunning over

your couch! It’s a great way to add subtle texture and color to a large wall.

WALL ARTOptional: Slip a dowel rod into the pool noodle to stabilize for hanging.1. Cut 2 circles of felt ½" (1.5cm) larger

all around than the end of the pool noodle.

2. Make small perpendicular cuts, not more than ½" (1.5cm) towards center, around the outside edges for ease in gluing to edges of pool noodle.

3. Using glue gun, glue circles of felt to both ends of the pool noodle, folding and overlapping cut edges of felt pieces around side edges of pool noodle.

4. Cut one long piece of felt to fit around the length of pool noodle, covering completely and allowing for a ½" (1.5cm) overlap. Glue around the pool noodle, overlapping the long edges and covering the edges of end circles.

5. Wind the entire length of Light Grey Super Saver yarn around the noodle to cover completely. If necessary, tack lengths of yarn with a dot of glue in random places to keep it from unraveling.

6. Cut 22 lengths, each 36" (91cm) long, of Silver Irresistible yarn. Fold one length in half and wrap folded edge around pool noodle. Slip ends through folded loop and pull to tighten for a lark's head knot. Keep knot at lower edge of noodle.

7. In same manner, knot lengths to pool noodle in groups of two or three, leaving spaces between the groups.

8. Add groups of Silver along the entire length of pool noodle.

9. Cut 21 lengths, each 50" (127cm)

long, of Rose Dreamy yarn. Holding lengths together as a bunch, tie the bunch to the noodle in a lark's head knot in one of the spaces.

10. Divide the bunch into 3 equal groups.

11. Braid the groups of yarn together.

12. Knot the end of the braid in an overhand knot.

13. Leave long ends unbraided.

14. Repeat to add braided bunches of Rose Dream yarn in each of the spaces along length of the noodle.

15. Tie one end of a length of Silver Irresistible yarn to one end of noodle.

16. Allowing for a small drape, tie opposite end of length to opposite end of noodle.

17. Make 7 tassels, each 5" (13cm) long, from Silver Irresistible and tie them evenly spaced along the drape. To make a tassel, wrap yarn around 5" (13cm) cardboard 4 or 5 times. Cut a piece of yarn 3" (8cm) long and thread doubled under all strands at upper edge of cardboard. Pull tightly and knot securely near strands. Cut yarn loops at lower edge of cardboard. Cut a piece of yarn 3" (8cm) long and wrap tightly around loops 1" (2cm) below top knot to form Tassel neck. Knot securely and weave ends to center of Tassel. Trim Tassel ends evenly.

18. Cut squares of felt and fold around straight edge of D-rings. Glue folded edges to the back of the noodle at each end to create hangers for the completed wall hanging.
