I have seen monogrammed wreaths all over the place lately, and after finding them for upwards of $59.99 in stores, I decided to make my own. This project was EXTREMELY simple.
Here are the steps:
The wreath I bought was $9.99 but I had a 50% off coupon and paid $4.99. It was the only one of it's size, and was strangely egg-shaped. I figured with a little wine and a lot of creativity, I could make it work.
I shopped the floral isle at Michael's and found individual stems are any where from $1.99 to $4.99. I found a pre-made bunch for $7.99 and cut apart the stems.
I ended up with all of these flowers to use!
I started pushing the stems I cut through the wreath. Then, I bent the ends and tucked them through to secure.
After I placed all the flowers, set the wreath aside. I wound two strands of wire around a pre-painted letter, and attached a piece of burlap using my husband's staple gun.
I pushed the wire through the wreath and wound the pieces together to attach. Then, I tied another piece of burlap around the middle of the wreath (I actually relocated one of the flowers to make room). I found this brown glittery ribbon that I loved, and I tied a loose bow with it. I used super glue to attach the additional bow.
Here is my final product. I went a little overboard with the brown ribbon but decided I liked the look of the long piece hanging down. Super easy, and so cute! Good luck with yours!
