Mixed Media with Shari Carroll: Rag-Rug Rope Tree

I’ve got a different spin for the holidays for you today. It’s shabby, fun, and funky!! This is made from Tim Holtz Colorblock fabric for a fantastic no-sew Christmas tree.

Our family is doing a handmade Christmas this year and I promised to step out of my wheelhouse. I’m making something for everyone that uses the rag-rug fabric wrapping technique that I used in this project.

The fabric is cut into 1″ strips and wrapped around clothesline rope. I used my multi color wrapped rope to create a non-traditional, colorful tree. Tim Holtz Colorblock fat-quarters are amazing for these smaller projects.

Try coiling these ropes to make ornaments or even funky stars!

To see the full process, check out my video below. Enjoy!
