I am a working mom with the sweetest little girl God could have ever given me. I have a new found love of sewing and decided to create a blog and show my work!

Summer wreaths

I got a few more pillows for my pallet chair at Hobby Lobby and decided that I wanted to make a summer wreath for the front door. Khloe was with me, and once I picked my frame and color of burlap material, she decided that she needed a little frame and material for a wreath for her door too! So, she and I picked our items and went home to make our wreaths. I did hers first...well, she likes to think she did it, but I did it! Here is her wreath :)



Once I was done with her wreath I got started on mine. I found that the burlap was quite a bit heavier than deco-mesh, so I decided to do a wrap and tie my ring. 


Then I weaved the orange ribbon over and under every other loop and finished at the bottom. I did not pin this, it stayed good by itself. Next, I made a bow with both the green and orange ribbon and voila :) I hung my wreath on the front door! I did have to tie the bow on the frame with a long piece of wire. 


Since the sides of the burlap has wire in it, it was easier to twist the ribbon to get this look. I hope you enjoy this project! It was super easy and pretty inexpensive.

Happy crafting :)
