DIY Spring Wreath

In anticipation for spring I made this beautiful wreath for our door.

 Using a grapevine wreath from Michael's and a Letter "C" for our last name and for the flowers used coffee filters (already had on hand) and food coloring (again already had).
 
I followed this tutorial and chose to use red food coloring. I soaked the filters in a large bowl with water and a couple squirts of red food coloring only for a second just enough to cover the filters then ringed out the excess liquid. Then separated each one to let dry (we let them dry overnight).
 
Attached the flowers to the wreath using hot glue, and then twine for our initial. And look at this beauty :)
 
 
If you would like me to make you one, please contact me, if you chose to make one please give credit where it is due!
