A Wreath


I stepped away from the computer, and my knitting, to make a fall wreath for my front door.

This is what I started with.  The wreath above holds some sentimental value with me.  It was one of the wreaths that were hanging on the front doors of the church I was married in.  Have I ever mentioned how much I was in love with my wedding day.  A day could not have been more perfect!  At least to me.

Anywhoo, using this wreath saved me some dinero.  I like that it is heart shape, because it reminds me how thankful I am for my lovin man.

There were a few wreaths on Pinterest that were wrapped in yarn that I liked, so I decided to go that route.  The yarn and autumn ornaments were 70% off at Joanns.  I probably spent a total of $5 on this entire project.

First, I wrapped each shade of yarn around the wreath.  I did not use glue, and just wrapped the yarn around some loose twigs on the wreath.  This way, I can change the wreath if I choose to make one for another season.

I did not want to cover the whole wreath with yarn.  I really like the rustic look of the twigs, and to me, rustic equals Fall.

Once I wrapped both colors of yarn, I glued on the sunflower ornaments.

A quick project that anyone can do.

What kind of Fall decorations have you made?
