Fall Wreaths

Happy Wednesday!

I made a fall wreath--but I think It needs something else?!

I need your help! 

Do you think it does, tell me what I could add to it! 

I bought the grapevine wreath last year at Michael's for super cheap, 

like $2.99 cheap, along with the two glittery flowers for $.99 each!

I was cleaning up around the craft room and found them!!

And this is how it turned out...

 yes or no?

So, after stalking looking at some of my crafty friends blogs, I started pinning

there fall wreaths, hoping to get some inspiration for what mine needs. I put together

this amazing collection of Fall Wreaths.

So here ya go!

I used this foam wreath

**get at any dollar or craft store**

This is the yarn I used

It's very different from any other yarn i've ever tried...and I have to say I like it the Best!

It's thicker and fluffy and makes the "wrapping" so much easier

Next step is to wrap...

this step is super easy, all you do is tie off you yarn around your wreath

and go to town wrapping!

It will look like this once you have covered the entire wreath.

Now just add your extras

Halloween {Yarn Wreath}

Here is my first yarn wreath I ever made, I tried it about 2 or so months ago before I started my blog and figured now is the time to post it!  Yarn wreaths are sooo easy, cheap,and so much FUN!  I'm obsessed with making wreaths, their so simple to make!  Here's how I made mine!

Supplies:

{wreath}

{yarn}

Step.{1}  Take your wreath and tie a knot {to secure your first wrap}

{should look like this}

   Step.{2}  Start wrapping around, around, & around!!

                                   {repeat this process until you have covered the entire wreath}

Step.{3} After I had wrapped the entire wreath with yarn I started customizing it.

YES, every wreath needs a little customizing.

:)

     I added glittery foam letters, a felt spider, and a cute little witch hat. I purchased all these from 

      Hobby Lobby for just $1.50!! 

                                  

Step.{4}  Hang your new yarn wreath and enjoy!

*Ghost Wreath*

While I was blog surfing I came across this really cool blog.....Anchor Mommy  She made this super cute and cheap ghost wreath.  Sooooo I decide I would give it a try...here is how mine turned out :)



Supplies:

• Styrofoam wreath
• tissues
• cotton balls
• glue or two sided tape
• sharpie

1. Place cotton ball in center of tissue and gather it around.

   2.  Put a piece of tape to the back of the ghosts head...**I used glue so it would say securely but you can u tape .......Repeat this step until you have covered the whole wreath

  3.  Draw the eyes and mouth on the ghosts' faces with the sharpie...Fan out the tissues to make sure the wreath is completely hidden

  4. Your finished!!....hang and enjoy!!!!

*Candy Corn Wreath*

I cant wait to share with you this FUN and easy craft me and my mom worked on this weekend!  I was inspired to do the candy corn wreath from seeing the cover of Women's Day magazine. There cover story for October is this beautiful candy corn wreath, here is how I did it...........


Supplies:

• Styrofoam wreath ( mine was 10in. and from dollar tree)
• 2 bags of Brach's candy corn
• roll of duct tape (black)
• ribbon
• hot glue gun

First cover the wreath in duct tape


Next...I started n the center and did one row at a time....I found that this was the best way to get this done quick.
Do one row going left then the next going right. see the pic below

REpeat this process till you have covered the most outer point on your wreath....

 this is what mine looked like before i put the bow on top...* don't forget to leave room @ the top for your bow!
