My first ever wrapped wreath....

{{BIG SHCOOL GIRL SQUEAL}} 

I made my first ever wrapped wreath, and it was easier than I thought.  Lately, I haven't felt like I have had time to do anything especially anything crafty.  Nevertheless, yesterday I found my self so  driven to finish the wreath.  I just kinda started not knowing where I was going, I sat on the couch watching my husband and kiddos battle it out on the Wii.  While I was doing the wreath they were so surprised how fast I did it.... Me too.


I always see these beautiful wreaths on Etsy and on all the great crafty blogs, but wasn't sure if I could do it.  I am not saying I am on SUPER STAR STATUS--> but I think I can get there.  The project isn't that expensive either.


Yarn- 3.99
Foam Wreath- 3.00
Fabric-Tac-  Had on hand
Flower-  Had on hand
Tulle- Had on hand
Embellishments- Had on hand

I began wrapping the wreath with the yarn

I used the Fabri-Tac every 10-15 wraps
wrapping tightly

Once I was done wrapping I felt so accomplished... but didn't know what to add.
I thought I am known as the flower lady... add flowers : )
I used sparkly blue tulle and a red flower but something was missing.
So I took a part a white flower, but I still needed some Yellow...
for our troops <3.  I was all out of yellow ribbon (gasp), so I used a yellow t-shirt rosette for the center.

My first wrapped wreath......

I'm hooked there will be more to come...
