Spring Wreath

It is Spring! And what do I love the most about Spring? The beautiful flowers that bloom around this time. I needed a Spring wreath for my front door but I wasn't sure how I wanted to make it. All I knew was that I wanted pretty pink flowers and burlap. I always make burlap wreaths because I simply love burlap. I searched Pinterest for ideas and inspiration. Here is what I came up with!


I am very pleased with this wreath and will keep it up until its time for Fall decor. I really love the little jewels I wrapped around it. It is actually a garland that I bought from Michaels. I love sparkly things so it goes well with my personality. This wreath turned out to be quite pricey but it was worth it for me. Everything was bought from Michaels. Unfortunately I don't have a tutorial for this. I'm sorry! Just thought I would show you all what I created for my Spring wreath! Happy Spring to you all!

Chevron Christmas Wreath


Hello all. On this post, I don't have a tutorial on how to make this wreath. This is something I wanted to have on my kitchen wall. It took me days to figure out how I wanted this wreath to look. I found the burlap at Walmart and I had no clue as to what this wreath would look like but I just knew it would look so pretty because of the chevron. So here is what it looks like.
I just love the outcome!! I love everything glittery so that is how I figured out how I would decorate this wreath. Crazy story...I was at Hobby Lobby for 2 hours trying to figure out what I was going to put on this wreath! I was trying to imagine in my head what it would look like if I put this or that on the wreath. It was a bit frustrating to be honest. People would stare at me cause I was in the same spot for those 2 hours.


Then I remembered the glittery poinsettias I used to make my Santa Owl Wreath. I was lucky to find more of those flowers. Then I find the red and gold ornament pick. I knew now this is what I wanted!
Originally I had this without a bow. But I felt it wasn't complete. So the next day I bought some red burlap ribbon, made the bow, and glued it on top. Now it was complete!
 

I don't know if you can see the gold glitter lining on the red chevron but I just love that part so much!
It looks so pretty in person. If you go to Walmart you probably saw this chevron burlap on the Christmas section. When I saw it I just knew I had to get it and make something with it. hehe.
I will have another post of something I created with this chevron burlap. Hope you all have a wondering holiday!

Fall Owl Burlap Wreath



It's been a while since I have blogged. I am terrible with managing my time. I have been working and learning a lot at my new job and married life that I have not had a chance to blog. Finally, I found the time to blog today! I have a few crafts that I made that need to be blogged. So last time I blogged, I wrote about my Burlap Owl wreath. I decided to update my wreath because I felt like it needed something. I added some glittered fall leaves that I glittered myself. I didn't get a chance to take a step by step photo for a tutorial but its rather easy. All you need is fake Fall leaves that you can purchase at any craft store, Mod Podge, and glitter. You first cover the leaves in Mod Podge and then cover with glitter. Let dry overnight and add another layer of Mod Podge. This keeps the glitter from falling out. If you want to do the back of the leaves follow the same steps. I didn't glitter the back sides since I was going to glue mine on my wreath. Here is what my Fall owl burlap wreath looks like now. I am very pleased with it now!

So there you have it. By the way I have no idea how to resize these photos! Large is to big and Medium is too big. I can never get it the size I want. Anyways, there are more crafts coming!
