apologies if this is in the wrong forum!
We have been decorating our learning room seasonally, including among other things, a seasons tree & garlands. I have just made our garland for valentines, i know what i am making for spring (daisies) but i am a bit stuck for summer. Can anyone give me some ideas please? It needs to be something fairly simple, that i can make from felt.
Thank you
Lynn

sunflowers and hydrangeas always remind me of summer.

Or, maybe you can make the garland out of netting (think fish net) and attach seashells, starfish, sand dollars etc. to it.

I LOVE your idea of decorating with garland.

That would be a pretty way to decorate the fireplace (when it is not on, of course)

Love it!

hmmm, sunflowers is a good one, would be nice & easy to make. The fish net one sounds great!
Thank you Alice! We have a fireplace in our learning room, which is where the garland goes.
