Spring Wreath

Here is the new wreath that I put on my door yesterday.  I'm loving it! 

It's perfect for Spring.  I love the colors and the simplicity of it!  It just makes me cheerful every time I open my front door!

I actually bought the base for the wreath at a yard sale a few weeks ago for 50 cents!  I knew that if I didn't buy it, then I would regret it in the near future.  And I'm so glad I did!

I bought a few flowers at Hobby Lobby when they were fifty percent off.  I wanted to stay with the whites, yellows and pinks.

I won an Easter wreath from Debbie over at Debbie Does Creations a few months ago.  She made a beautiful wreath that hung on my door throughout the Easter season.  She glittered an R for the wreath.  I loved it so much, that I decided to take it off and put it on this wreath too!

I'm absolutely loving it!

Easter Wreath Tutorial

Here is an easy Wreath Tutorial for $10.

Wicker Wreath-$5

4 Bundles of Flowers-$4

1 Ribbon Spool- $1

This is what you need; wreath, flowers, ribbon, pliers, and glue gun (not pictured, whoops.)

Take the pliers and cut all of the flowers off the stems at the bottom of the bundle. You need the stem long so that you can glue them deep in the wreath.

Now, start with one matching bundle. Here I did the white berries and placed them kinda symmetrical to each other. Place a generous amount of hot glue on the bottom of the stem, then weave it deep in the wreath.

Here is another bundle. These were cute Easter Eggs with little flowers.

Do the next bundle. These were the pink tulips.

Now yellow Tulips...

Then the last bundle.

You can add more or less flowers. There really is no limit on how many you can squeeze in.

Now for the ribbon.

I found the center of my ribbon by folding it in half. Then I made a simple loop knot for hanging it on the wall.

Take the loop knot and place it where you want the top of the wreath to be.

Now take the ends of the ribbon and tie a secure square knot.

Now, to make a bow...take the ribbon and fold each end back and forth, which actually made 3 loops on each side. Hold it there.

Next, take the ends of the ribbon and go Under the bow, each in a different direction. Then meet back at the top and tie it again in a square knot.

You will need to fluff the bow up and shape it the way you like. It was easy with this bow cause it had wire in it. Now you are done.

Now you can take a deep breath and enjoy Spring!
