In my continuing quest to save money I set out to make a wreath for my front door.
I needed it to be simple, bright and cheery and I needed it to last from March 18 to almost Summer...
I started with a grapevine base (I had on hand) and 4 bushes of tulips from the dollar tree ($1.00 each)
I cut the branches off with a wire snips (if you do not have one.. get one they are wonderful)
I then started to glue the stems in a whimsical way around the base
I used tacky glue and find it to be better for me than hot glue for making wreaths
The glue globs will dry
And here it is all done...
I can't wait to put it on our door!
I love the bright colors
I am choosing not to add a bow... because I like the free flow of the wreath!
ohhh, what fun colors! Just perfect for spring and summer :)

Makes me dream of sunn days as I watch snow fall out my window. I live in the south, not sure what is up with this. I love your wreath and good job on the price.

I really like the looseness of this wreath - rather than bunching them up you left them wild and it makes it very vibrant...
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty and inexpensive way to add some color!
ReplyDeleteThis is so fun and Springy!! It is so nice to add color like that in decor.
