I told you all last week that I was going to attempt to make a wreath for my house. I saw an awesome post on Pinterest where a girl had done one for her favorite football team! I decided that it didn't look like it would be very hard to do... so I made up my mind that I was going to try one!
Keep in mind... I'm not crafty at all! So I enlisted the help of my wonderful Mother! We went on a for some tulle, letters, paint, and wreath! This is what we found!
I ended up getting 5 yards of each color of tulle. I also got a bag of plain letters... I tried to get the ones that were already done at Michaels, but of course they were missing one of the letters I needed. So I purchased some white spray paint, as well as glitter to go over top of the white.
It was quite simple, but I like things to look perfect and unfortunately they weren't! However, I think the wreath turned out quite decent! I may add a couple of small things, but for now... here is my wreath!!!
As you can see, I probably used too much fabric in the beginning. I should have measured each strip and yadda yadda yadda, but I didn't. I had absolutely NO method to my madness! After it was all done we took the scissors to it, so we could trim it up! Here is the final product so far! Don't laugh! And thank to my mom for helping me out!
I think it looks really neat!!! You did a great job! =) Be proud of yourself for your work!!
ReplyDeleteI would have never been able to get it done without my mom. Even as simple as it was, I still got frustrated! I'm definitely not good in the crafting department!
