FRIDAY FUN DAY!

 Fuzzy Peppermint Pillow 

Crochet Pattern 

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

The Fuzzy Peppermint Pillow is the perfect

 Project for A Sweet And Festive

Friday Funday!

It is designed using Bernat super bulky (6) weight 

blanket yarn, so it stitches up super quick. And,

It only uses a few ounces of yarn

You can make it in just a couple of hours. 

It Measure 12 X 12 inches and it's a nice addition

 to your Christmas and Holiday decorations.

It is also so soft and squishy, that everyone will

 want one. 

You do not have to make it in traditional Christmas

 Colors, just use your imagination and look through

 your yarn stash and see what fun color combinations

 you can come up with.

I just know you will enjoy stitching up some of these.

I know I did. They are so fun to make, decorate with

 and give to others.

Gnome For The Holidays Pillow

Crochet Pattern And Video -  LINK

I designed the Gnome Christmas Ornaments to look 

similar to the Gnome Christmas Pillows.

 I shrunk them down so we can hang them on

 our Christmas Trees.

They would also make great gift tags, or place markers. 

As well as, look adorable added to a Christmas Bunting.

There are just so many ways to decorate with The

Snowflake Ornaments Crochet Pattern And How To Stiffen Them | Posh Pooch Designs

 Snowflake Ornaments Crochet Pattern
 And How To Stiffen Them
 With Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

This lovely Snowflake is designed to be a Christmas

 And Holiday ornament, measuring 6 X 6 inches

One it stiffened up for hanging, we add a ribbon hanger

 with beads for a fun touch.

The Snowflakes stitch up pretty quick and you can

 make sever in one sitting. 

They will look wonderful hanging on your Christmas tree,

 stockings, the mantel and any place you would like to 

hang them for all your festive occasions.

There are 3 Ways of Stiffening Your Snowflake

 For Hanging up.

1. Glitter Spray -  Go outside, Lay the snowflake on a paper towel.

Spry the back of the Snowflake let it dry. Turn it over and 

spray the front.

When it's dry add a hanger.

2. Glitter Glue - Lay the snowflake on a paper towel.

Mix equal parts of Glue and water. 

With a paint brush, paint the back of the snowflake.

When it's dry, turn it over and paint the front.

When it's dry add a hanger.

3. White School Glue - Mix equal amounts of white school glue and water

 in a bowl. Dip the snowflake in the mixture, until it's covered.

Lay on a paper towel to dry or paper plate. Pat out some of

 the moisture. You will need to turn it a few times as it's 

drying to keep it from sticking to the paper towel.

You can sprinkle with glitter while the glue is wet

 for a glitter effect.

I have used all three methods and love #1 the best. It

is the quickest to apply and dry, and least messy.

Plus it adds glitter and stiffen at the same time.
