Here's what I used...a wire wreath template and green floral wire both from Michaels.

and some leaves of course...

There are some turtorials online that use foam wreaths and I might try that next time in order to make the wreath fluffier looking but what I used did the trick too...

And just start outside in tieing leafs on the wire template. I must say this was more time consuming that i would have liked, a few hours all combined.
But I'd say the end product was well worth it!
Jakey wanted to help but I wouldnt let him...so he gave me his best "puppy dog face"
HEY! Write it down, record the date, I did a post that wasn't about the baby :)
Merry Christmas!
Love it! Such a great idea! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny! Great job on the wreath! I wanted to make one for fall, and ran out of time. Next year for sure! (and I might enlist your help)
ReplyDeleteFrannnnnddddddd..... you're kidding me right?!?! Super woman... how did you find time to make this #1? AND #2, I'm in love! Love the layers! So perfect for the front door! Lastly #3, I can picture you "borrowing" leaves (sneakily) from the neighbors yard. hahah! I still have my wreaths up from 3 (????) years ago that you made. Everything I take them out of the box I think of you and they are in PERFECT condition.
