i feel like the blogs lately have been pretty boring. so, instead of blogging about everyday life, i'm gonna try to stick more to pinterest ideas and fun events!
so, i started this 1st wreath back before 4th of july. it looked really easy and it WAS but it took wayyyyy more time than i expected and wayyyyy more ribbon than i planned on! sarah and i found some discount ribbon around the 4th of july week and i bought at least 7 rolls thinking that would be more than enough. well, i ran out about halfway through. time got away from me and 4th of july passed by and i wasn't very motivated to finish. with labor day coming up, i decided to buy some felt (cause it's thicker and would use up more space) and complete the project! this was the finished wreath done just in time for labor day weekend!
as much as i love the look of these wreaths, the amount of supplies and time it took to tie all these pieces was a little much, even for me!
now september is here and i've been pinning lots of fall wreaths on pinterest. i want halloween wreaths too so fall is going to have to be september/november. this was an idea i'd wanted to do for awhile. i've never worked with yarn for a wreath and the felt flowers were much easier than i expected! the yarn does take a VERY long time to wrap around the wreath. i kept thinking of how many wreaths i could've made with ribbon in that amount of time! anyway, this is the 1st fall wreath. i think it turned out almost like the picture!! (it's brown, not black.)
tater enjoyed helping with this wreath. he still carries around that piece of yarn.
