Poinsetta YoYo Wreath

Look at my new pattern i have for sale my friend is brillant she has written all the directions on making this wonderful new way of using yoyo makers. Hard to fine patterns for the yoyo makers.

She has use photos to direct you in making each petal.

I think its darling and easy to make and not expensive and you don't have to have yoyo tool makers.

Makes great gifts for friends , nursing homes, Activity directors would love to make this for their homes as well as for their patients. i think a green bow would be cool. What do you think?? This is the wreath created for christmas using the circle plastic . Have a great day hugs kat
