Halloween Wreath

I know, I know...

I'm 2 months too late.  But I did want to share my Halloween wreath because it turned out so cute!


I made the shape from an old swimming noodle that I taped together.

I then cut up a maternity dress that I wasn't too fond of.  But I love the way the black and grey work together making it look Halloween.

I just cut strips and double tied it into knots around the noodle.  I also gave it a mummy kind of look.

I found the bows at Joann's on clearance.  So they were like $.50 each. 

Only paying $1 for this wreath made me feel...amazing!

It's the busiest time of the year!!

 It is a busy time of year for all of us!! I hope that amongst all the chaos we find time to remember what is most important, the MEANING of the season NOT all of the stuff.

The first picture is of my Christmas card holder. I never have anywhere to hang all of my Christmas cards. I solved the problem!! I took a piece of posterboard and cut it to the shape I wanted, then covered it with material. The lettering was done with my cricut machine. I am going to paint some clothespins to hold the cards on. I think it turned out super cute. I love simple!!

 
  I actually made this wreath last year. It was really simple. I spray painted it blue and covered with ribbon and gave it a little glitter (you can NEVER have too much glitter). I found almost all the stuff at the Dollar Store.


I needed something cute to put in my window. It was so easy to do, I just added a little glitter, and hot glued the snowflakes on the ribbon, and as always the glitter :)

Halloween Wreath

I saw a lot of ideas for making a wreath, nothing was quite what I wanted so I made my own. I wasn't really sure how to make one, so i'm glad it turned out! I started by spray painting a wreath black. Then
i cut strips of different colored tulle. Word to the wise, cutting the strips to thin is a long and boring process so make them on the wider side. I couldn't find a spider I liked so I created my own. I took a large marble and covered it with material. The spider web is a place mat cut down. I am so excited that it turned out so cute!!
I need to take pictures as i go, but be patient, i'm still learning!!!
