4th of July Wreath



Hello everyone! I have been MIA for a while due to my work schedule. I was able to get a chance to finally craft something up. July is coming next month and I have never done a 4th of July wreath. So I decided to make one. I looked to Pinterest for inspiration and came across one like this one. It was being sold on Etsy but it was too expensive for me at the moment. So I made my own wreath. I didn't want to copy the exact one that was being sold. I wanted to change it just a bit. I added the American Flag and the bow is a different color. The American flag means so much to me because 1.) I am a proud American, 2.) My husband was in the military, and 3.) I was a proud military wife. Even though he is no longer in the military I honor every soldier that put their lives in danger to keep our country safe as well as those that lost their lives in battle. They are all my Hero's and I respect what they do for our country. I was actually able to put my wreath up for Memorial Day to honor those who lost their lives in battle. My husband really liked it and told me I should put it up so I did. It will go back on on July to honor all those soldiers who have served and are currently serving. Everything I used was bought at Hobby Lobby except for the starry burlap and the flag. Here how my wreath turned out.

I didn't think the USA letters were going to hold well but they did pretty good. I hot glued the letters together and then glued it to the wreath.


So that is my 4th of July wreath! Hope you like. Have a nice day!

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!
