Spring Wreath

The other night Hubby, Addie and I went for a walk around the neighborhood.  I was admiring everyone's spring decorations, when it hit me!  I never made a spring wreath!!  I was so consumed with decorating my mantle for spring that I completely forgot.  I have a million things going on - orders and working on stuff for my sister's baby shower - but I can put all that aside to throw together a quick wreath, right?  Of course!!  So that's what I did.  Our house is a like an army green color, so I knew that yellow was my color of choice.  I have had the same spring wreath for about 9 years now, and the flowers were way faded on it - it had definitely seen better days.  So - I removed everything from the wreath except for some yellow flowers that were still in good shape.  Then I quickly made some rosettes and burlap flowers and I was done.  I did, however, burn the living daylights out of my fingers with my hot glue gun.  Oh well - that's what I get for rushing I guess.  LOL.






That's it - quick and easy!  Now I have to go nurse my crafting wounds...

  9. P.s. Not sure if you knew that you have the word verification turned on for comments. I turned mine off months ago, and still don't get a lot of spam.
