Making and spool and wool garland is easier than you think and adds a nice touch to your Christmas decor.
You might have noticed some pretty garland on all the Christmas tree photos I’ve taken recently.
It’s such an easy project and looks so pretty.
You can use it for Christmas tree or anywhere around your house.
And it’s SUPER easy to make.
Let me show you how you can make this easy spool and wool garland in minutes.

SUPPLIES:
- small wooden spools
- thick wool
- large needle
TUTORIAL:
That small needle is a regular needle so you can see the difference for the large needle you’ll need.
The hardest part of this project is threading that needle with wool but you only have to do it once.
I’m sure there is another needle with a bigger eye out there so pleas let me know!
Once you get that wool thread on the needle, knot it and start threading all the little spools.
You don’t have to do anything else! Once you get them all on the thread, spread them apart a bit and cut off to the length you are happy with.
The best part is that the thickness of the wool keeps the spools in place so you don’t need to knot it anywhere else or even glue it.
Just wool and spools!
They just seem to pop on my new white tree.
So pretty.
So easy.
Something you can make in minutes and feel so proud about.

It’s gorgeous, Jamie! I love how rustic it is. I wonder if I can find some spools.. what craft store did you find these in?
Thanks hon. Just Michael’s, Tara. Although all Michael’s stores in our area might not have any because I took all of them! Kidding, kinda 😉
Hugs, Jamie
I love this! I bet you could accumulate old spools at garage sales and thrift stores too…gonna keep my eye out now! And your white tree stopped me dead in my tracks, amazing!!
Awww, thanks Emily! Yes, great idea to keep your eye out on old spools. The garland would look so cute all year round too.
Hugs, Jamie
I absolutely love this garland! It reminds me of my mom, who is a sewer and quilter 🙂
Aww, thanks Emily.
