Cozy fall weather always makes me want to add even more cozy decor to my home, and what better way to do that than with a warm, old sweater? As you're pulling out your sweaters for the season, you might find a few that don't fit anymore, have shrunk, have holes, or maybe even a stain. Instead of tossing them, why not upcycle them?!
There are sooo many creative ways to repurpose old sweaters and turn them into beautiful home decor! From cozy DIY sweater crafts to unique upcycled sweater decor, there are so many possibilities. In this series, I'll be sharing several fun and easy old sweater projects that will give those forgotten sweaters a whole new life in your home. First up is this sweet framed sweater decor with dried flowers!
Supplies:
Old Sweater
Frame
Hot Glue
Dried Flowers
Twine/Ribbon
Grab your frame and your sweater.
Step 2:
Take out the glass of the frame, carefully. and place it on the section of sweater you wish to cut.
Step 3:
Trace out and then cut the sweater to size.
Step 4:
Without stretching it, add a line of glue on the glass around each side and gently and quickly place the sweater ontop of it.
Step 6:
Place to sweater part back into the frame.
Step 7:
Gather some dried flowers, or flowers you want to dry, and tie them with ribbon or twine. Either use hot glue to secure to the sweater or a pin.
I just love how this turned an ornate frame into such a cozy little piece of decor that feels perfect for fall and winter! The texture of the sweater paired with the dried flowers gives it that warm, collected look that I love, and it's such a fun way to give an old sweater a whole new purpose.
I think it would look so pretty styled on a shelf, layered with other vintage pieces, or even hung on a gallery wall. It's one of those simple DIY projects that makes something old feel special again!
