Burlap Spring Wreath

by Myra on March 29, 2011

This past weekend I decided that it was finally time to update my wreath from St. Patrick’s Day to Spring. Can I just say that I LOVE my interchangeable embellishment wreath!?! Changing it up for different seasons and holidays is so easy!

Isn’t she perty?

I gathered my St. Patrick’s Day Wreath, some fabric scraps, Walmart ribbon, scissors, needle and thread, velcro and my handy dandy hot glue gun.

I got this cute wooden sign from my sweet blogger friend Rhoda. It’s perfect for so many different projects, but for now, I decided that it’s just right for my Spring wreath.

I’ve been dyyyyyying to use this awesome Rust-oleum spray paint – Lagoon! It’s a great color!

I used my Silhouette SD machine to cut out the letters. With just a few new embellishments and the sign, my front door was ready for Spring!

I pondered the size of the sign for a long time. Is it too big? Should I take it off? Hmmm…

I decided to go with it because I like it. To show you how it looks in the room, here’s a pic…

This is how we live – with smooshed, crooked pillows, tools in chairs etc. It’s a wonderfully, imperfect, amazing life!

I’ll be sharing an embellishment tutorial on Friday, so stay tuned for that!

It looks great! Love the ribbon/burlap flowers and the lagoon spray paint!! I will have to be on the lookout for that. Would add some much needed color to an old patio set

The size is perfect – it can probably be seen from the street and I like that. Your home is very welcoming!

Love the newly vamped door wreath although being an Irishwoman I am very partial to the green!
But I was sorry that that lovely PARIS sign had to be painted over ;(

Now have a lovely little day!
