I got home and started hitting the web hard--looking for instructions...studying pictures...watching tutorials...only to find that I had bought the completely wrong width of mesh...oops. Wreaths are made with the super wide rolls...I had measly 5 1/2 inch rolls. I didn't care...I had come this far and I would just have to make it work...so I dove in!
I started with pink (and with NO rhyme, reason, or plan) I plunged in...
Okay...next I added the blue...that was SUPER easy...
Orange...a little harder now...
And finally...the green....whoosh--I was REALLY bored with this process!
Now the fun...embellishment...I added ribbons, feathers, tulle poofies (technical term), bead floral accents, and a few butterflies...
the camera doesn't show it's prettiness...
it STILL needed something...A giant 3! I modge-podged scrapbook paper on the front...sprinkled it with silver glitter, and added a few rhinestones...I couldn't stop myself! Next, I stapled wire to the back of the 3 to anchor it...
TA-DAA!!!!
My 3...
It's really floufy!
The colors are much brighter in real life...Overall...FUN!
SOOOOOOO cute! I love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenni...saw LOTS at Hobby Lobby that would have gone with your Garden theme--maybe we could plan a trip together soon?
