Pashmina Scarf Craft

pashmina scarf craft pashmina scarf

Pashminas are beautiful scarves to add a light cover of warmth or a pretty accent to a simple dress or outfit. Shawls are usually more casual in style, but both Pashminas and Shawls offer a very practical function for a stylish wardrobe.

Here is a fun activity to do with your friends while enjoying the benefits of getting together – sharing great conversations and developing strong relationships.

Materials:
Solid colored Scarves or Shawls or Felt Fabric (available in Fabric Stores) that can be cut into long pieces for each Pashmina (Approximate size: 54" long x 18"-24" wide, depending on the bolt size)

For Decoration:
• Old Buttons, Beads and Pretty Ribbons (you can also recycle the pieces from spare earrings, bracelets or jewelry)
• Extra decorative swatches of Felt from a Craft or Fabric Store (most stores usually have a good supply of pre-cut pieces in 12" x 12" squares that are available in a bright spectrum of colors)
• Sewing needles
• Scissors
• Elmer’s Glue

Directions:
Arrange a place to put out all of the colorful felt, beads, ribbons and assorted treasures for decorating on the Pashminas. Cut the decorative colorful felt swatches into daisy flower shapes and make vines. Glue together with Elmer’s and let dry. Then tack the finished flower vines on to the Pashmina. You can also just make shapes and glue them onto the finished Pashmina and go wild with colors.It is easy to create fun fringe just by cutting the edges of the felt into strips. Sew on pretty ribbons and beads. Have fun with the craft and your friends!
