Wreath Tutorial

Now for years I have admired those cute egg wreaths in JoAnne Fabrics. And for years, I was too cheap to buy one, and really I just didn’t like the colors on my red door. Well now I can make one! And it only cost around $5……….if you shop at the Dollar Tree.

Lindsay from Living with Lindsay got the idea from Kimba’s wreath below (who was a past feature……of course she was) and decided to give it a try. I’m so glad. I love this idea and I think I may try it this weekend with my own twist. 

TUTORIAL!!!! There is just something about being shown the steps to a project. I get all giddy inside.

Now I think I may use spray paint because I am afraid the rain and wind that hits my brilliant Red door may wash the acrylic paint off. And she also uses wire to attach by poking a hole through the egg first. I’m even cutting a corner there……….why not a glue gun? That should work, right? Either way is perfect. As long as you get it done right?She uses a toothbrush to get the speckles on them. I can’t wait.

While we’re gluing………this time with spray adhesive……she shows you how to make your own mossy balls…………I think they call them Orbs? Either way……I love them…………that doesn’t sound right………nevermind.

These………..right here……….love them.

You gotta love a girl who takes housekeeping seriously……..Vacuums 4x a week? Really? I bet she only gets 2x in………and toilets 2x a week? Over achiever for sure.

I could maybe take a few hints from her……….but I am NOT cleaning toilets 2x a week……..we have four bathrooms, I figure if I rotate using them, they are good with only one cleaning per week.

She recently re-did her bedroom. The red toile is killing me. I love it! And those curtains!!!! She made them of course……….stinker. She has a lot of DYI projects wrapped up in this room. Amazing job. Lovin the plates…… I knew I loved this girl…….even though she sewed most of the curtains……..she knows when it’s best just to use some glue. Atta girl! Quick like a bunny………go see what she’s up too.
