Tassels, my new obsession

I just started learning to make tassels and I am already becoming obsessed. I look at everything and wonder "can that be used as the top of a tassel?" Seriously, nothing is safe- Max better watch out or I might just tassel his greenies or something.

Max: wonder dog, greenie afficianado, 

uncontrollable licker. 

So, after I completed the quilt I decided to start on a few smaller projects. These tassels were the perfect choice. They are easy to make, and fun too!

Uncle Sam

Uncle Sam was my first attempt at making a tassel and I think he came out quite nicely. I can just imagine him hanging inside a large patriotic wreath or on a glass doorknob. So.Stinking.Cute!

Bird is the word

This adorable little bird was my second attempt at making a tassel. I am pretty pleased with the final result, but I think I'd like to make another one- this time making it a bit "fatter". 

You should give the tassels a try! They are so much fun and can be made in about 15-20 minutes! I plan on making more for the grand opening of my etsy store ( keep checking here and I will let you know when it finally opens, and offer blog follower discounts).
