With Easter just around the corner why should the bunny get
to have all the fun?
For some reason I feel so inspired by Easter this year! It
could be the new Coffee Crisp mini eggs that I spotted at the grocery store or
all the Easter Lilies I keep seeing everywhere. Whatever it is I needed to get
in on the action. Therefore I decided to add a bit of décor to my home and make
an Easter wreath!
I hopped over to my local Michael’s to grab all of the
supplies I needed. 2 hours later – yes – I tend to go a bit nutty when
surrounded by paint brushes, stencils, canvases and oooo is that a cupcake caddy???!!
Umm… I
digress where was I again?! Oh yes I gathered all of my supplies in my black
mesh Michael’s bag and proudly declared to the clerk that yes I was going to
make an Easter wreath and it was going to be SPECTACULAR! I wanted
something that was relatively easy to assemble and that would give my black
door a bit of pop and dazzle! Here she is!
Materials used:
- 12” Grapevine wreath
- Green paddle wire
- Pink ribbon
- 6’ Mini Easter egg garland
- Easter egg bouquet
- Purple tulips
- Glue gun
I started by wrapping the Easter egg garland around the right side of the grapevine. I used a glue gun to affix them in place, while leaving a bit of the garland loose at the bottom to use later. I used the green paddle wire to combine the Easter egg bouquet and purple tulips then used more green paddle wire to attached it the grapevine. I wrapped the excess Easter egg garland around the base of the bouquet and grapevine, and used a bit of glue to hold in place.
I finished it off with a pretty pink
bow. Voila!
Total time – 1 hour while listing to
some killer salsa ;)
If you’re a
bit less ambitious and amped as me – I found these beautiful Easter wreaths on
Etsy which are sure to leave your neighbours jealous.
