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!

Twine box from cardboard box

Pinterest creation! So glad I pinned this one, a cardboard box turned into organizational basket.
Cardboard box
Twine
Left over fabric
Hot glue gun with hot glue
Start with box in the size of your preference, hot glue starting end of twine to either top or bottom of the box and wrap twine all the way up or down the box when finished hot glue the ending part of the twine. Take fabric to line the inside and outer edges of the box hold in place with more hot glue. Simple project takes about 20 minutes depending on the size of box you choose.
Can't wait to make more of these for my office organization. Will be hitting up the remnant section at joanns
Like the project!? Pin it, sharing is caring :)
