Mistletoe reinvented: Kiss-letoe!

Before Christmas Mum in the Madhouse made some beautiful Mistletoe from felt, which I loved, and pinned. Looking through my pins the other day, I noticed LBG also looking.

“What’s the Mamma?” She asked.

“Mistletoe” I told her

“Miss-a-toe” repeated Dimples

I then had to explain what it is and why we use it.

“Kissy-toe” quoth Dimples.

 

Which is how I found myself this afternoon cutting heart shapes from a bright pink cardigan that I inadvertently felted.

I made a loose template to speed up the cutting process, and cut the buttons from the cardigan too.

get out your glue gun

A quick blast with the glue gun, a snippet of ribbon and Bob, proverbially speaking, is your Uncle.

Kissletoe for Valentine’s Day. Wonder if DH will use it to his advantage.
