Wreath

Hello friends,
My front door was In need for a new summer wreath. I went to michaels to get my supplies. They had a 40% off sale on flower bundles, so now was the time to buy them! I find that the bundles are much less expensive. This year I wanted to go with green, and white! One trip to michaels, and I found everything I was looking for, and everything was on sale too! Tuesday it rained all day, so it was a good day to sit at my kitchen table, and put together a pretty summer wreath.


I think this gives a warm and friendly, "Welcome" I like the green, and white against the black door! 


 
This is what I started with! 


 
First thing I do Is cut apart all my bundles of flowers. Get out the old glue gun, and get to work! It took me about an hour to do this. For around $20.00 you can make your own pretty wreath!!

Have a great day!!

I turned out beautiful and its always cheaper to make your own, I can't believe they sometimes want $100 for a similar wreath. I agree the colors really pop against your door.

I love the ferns you added to this mix, Kathy! I may have to add to my frame wreath on my front door with some ferns. I got some of those hydrangea bushes, too. They were a much better price than the single flowers, although I do like the way the single ones look better. Love the way this looks on your front door. It really stands out.
