DIY Cotton Anniversary Tassels
Year 2 – The Cotton Anniversary
I had so much fun making these Cotton Anniversary tassels. They were actually quite simple and as I got the hang of it, I could really churn them out. There was something kind of therapeutic about it – cutting strips and strips of cotton, seeing the mounds of cotton take shape. So beautiful.
Cotton Anniversary Tassels
What you will need:
Cotton Fabric cut into 18″x24″ squares (1 yard makes 4 tassels)
Rotary Cutter
Twine (to hang all of the tassels)
Fabric marker
I used Jaime’s tutorial for “No Sew Fabric Tassels” and chose cotton fabrics in our wedding colors. Her tutorial is very well written and easy to follow. I opted to make my tassels out of 18″x24″ squares, that way I was able to get four tassels out of a yard of fabric. Using a fabric marker, I simply wrote special memories on each tassel.
Now we have a spiffy little tassel garland to display in our house to always remember our “Cotton” Anniversary.

Krista,
Do y'all ever come to the Beltline living art installation? There is an AMAZING 30ft tall version of a cotton tassle "whisper-wall." Totally reminds me of this. What a fabulous tribute to your sweet love story!!

Jaimie – I have never been to the Beltline installations. That sounds so awesome. So funny to hear about things happening right under your nose. Love this crazy city.
Katie – You are super sweet! Thanks so much for making my morning.
Lovely! Can I ask what you wrote on these?

Just little memories from our wedding day. Kind of a timeline of special memories from the beginning to the end of that special day.
