DIY Spring Wreath

The craft mood has definitely hit me lately.  I decided since I made my own wreath for Christmas, I would also make one for my absolute FAVORITE season of the year.

I went to wal mart and purchased a plain, brown wreath made of sticks for $2 on sale..... then picked out my favorite flowers (fake daffodil stem, carnation, and a pink gerber  daisy.) I also picked up some pink ribbon and a foam "H" which was 50 cents. I clipped the flowers from the stem, arranged them on the wreath to see what they would look like before I glued them, and did the same with the H and ribbon.

I took a hot glue gun and glued a large dot onto the end of the flower and pushed it into the wreath. I continued to do this until all the flowers were glued.  I then wrapped the ribbon around the top of the wreath to hang it. The H went on last and was super easy to glue.  Once I hung it up, I realized I could definitely add more to it if I wanted. I later found a few pink butterflies at the dollar store that I added on in the same way as the others. I may make a fall wreath as well and glue on our street numbers.

The entire project cost around: $10. I thought that was pretty good considering how much most wreaths cost that you would purchase.
