Ikea Hack Hygge Footstool made with Rya-Tie and Yarn
Can you feel it? Can you feel the cozy fun yarn bundles? This Ikea Hack was so easy to make….. but it took forever! I’m not gonna lie it took forever to make but I love love love the results so it was well worth the time and effort. I suggest a few good movies, a glass of wine and your Rya-Tie tool for bundle making and then a repeat for bundle sewing.
