Wreath Re-do
My Mom's birthday is today. For one of her gifts, Alison and I redecorated the wreath on our front door. It turned out really pretty and Mama loved it!
Here is the "before" picture. It had gotten quite dilapidated, so it was definitely time to do something with it!
Cutting the old decorations off of the wreath.
Arranging the flowers and gluing them on.
It's finished!
The hydrangea is one of my favorites, and even if it takes a while to make it's really pretty simple. Cut out 20 petals in a rounded cross shape about 3/4" across. Stitch them onto a small oval of fabric using one cross stitch for each little petal.
For these poppies, cut out 3 circles in graduating sizes - our biggest for these flowers was 3 3/4". Lightly singe the edges over a candle. Stitch them together and attach a button or bead in the center.
I'd like to do more felt flower tutorials in the future, so stay tuned!
