Hello everyone! I have not been here for a week and I have missed it so much! Our computer went kaboom and so today we bought a new one! Yipee! So happy to be back and hope everyone has been great!
I do not have a big post today but I wanted to make sure I got on to see what everyone was up to. I did manage to make a spring wreath for our front door. I did not take any pictures while I was putting it together but here is an after picture.
For my first wreath, I think it turned out nicely.
I bought all my items from Hobby Lobby:
Straw wreath
yarn
stick pins
ribbon
flowers
I took the plastic covering off the wreath to wrap the yarn around it. I am not sure if this was a good idea or not because it made a huge mess, but that's what I did.
While wrapping the yarn around it, I would place a small stick pin in every so often. I used pins with yellow heads. It took awhile to wrap this little thing, but after about 3 to 4 hours I had it done. I went back and did a second wrapping but didn't take as much care to the placement of the yarn. I was tired!
I cut the two flowers and just stuck them in the wreath. Then I took the ribbon, cut how much I wanted and tied it to my wreath hanger. If I want to change out the ribbon, I just untie it from the hanger. Pretty easy.
Well, that is all for today! Again, I am really happy to be back! Woo-hoo!
