Small Broom Wall Decorations

These 6 inch brooms can be made to match any decor, and made for your own use or as gifts, used as gift tie-ons, or sold at a craft fair. Although I haven't tried it yet, I'm thinking they might even be a cute addition to a summer wreath. My brooms were particularly cost effective to make as I purchased all of my materials at garage sales.

Crafting Time: 30 - 45 minutes

What You Need

  • 6 inch straw broom
  • scraps of ribbon or pre-made bows
  • small silk flowers and bits of baby's breath
  • craft glue or a hot glue gun

Directions

Cut off the flower heads and arrange them with baby's breath over the surface of the broom. When you find a pleasing arrangement, THEN glue them in place. Glue or tie-on ribbon bows.

Each broom already comes equipped with a loop at the top of the handle for hanging, so there's no need to add one.

My aunt made me one of these once and it smelled like cinnamon. It made our house smell really good. How would you give it a cinnamon smell though?
