Wreath Addiction

It's that time again! I was getting bored walking into the house looking at this wreath so I made a new one. This time using my favorite colors, purple and green. And I luurve it! These pictures don't do it justice.

I used my go to standards for making wreaths on the cheap,  the base, a dollar store Styrofoam wreath covered with Spanish moss again from the dollar store and floral pins to hold the moss in place.

Once the wreath form is totally covered with the moss, now start adding things to pretty it up. On my last trip to Micheal's I found a bag of fun decorative moss in shades of green and burgundy/purple (not sure what to call that color) I also found a garland of wispy purple berries. All which equaled inspiration for my new wreath. The garland is affixed to the back of the wreath form using floral pins. This made the wreath a little larger and added a different texture to the wreath. Can't wait to hang it on the front door in the morning.

Spring Moss Wreath

My name is Emily and I love wreaths, I admit it. Some people have shoe addictions, I think I have a wreath addiction. I love changing the wreaths on my front doors. Have you priced wreaths, they can be spendy but not this baby, this baby was made with things found at the dollar tree which means I made this wreath for about $5.00, not to bad huh.

For this wreath, I used a foam wreath form (say that three times fast) and covered it using some Spanish moss securing it to the wreath form using some floral pins.

I then added a little bit of reindeer moss to add some color. The wreath at this stage is very pretty and could easily be left as is but I couldn't leave well enough alone.

I decided I wanted to spruce it up some so I added a tiny nest with robin's eggs and some tiny blue bobbles. A perfect little spring wreath on a perfectly red door!
