Ribbon 1- thicker, 2-3 smaller Valentine-ish Ribbon
Step 1: Take your wreath....If you got it from DI or from a second hand store...be sure to take everything off of it and have a clean plain grapevine wreath.
Step 2: Start wrapping your ribbon around the wreath..... until you have met back up with where you started. You can wrap it as close as you want or as far apart as you want. Just make sure that it is wrapped tightly so it will stay! :)
Step 3: Hot glue your ends to the wreath. I glued the first one down really well and then glued the other end to the first one... so it all matches up all pretty like!! :)
Step 4: Take your sign..or piece of wood and sand it down and paint it creme. Mine was already creme from the wreath I bought and it already had the small holes drilled into it for the wire!! This is the for sure way to go!! But if not..paint it creme and then drill 2 small holes one on each end for the wire to secure it to the wreath!
Step 5: I don't have a picture for this! Sorry :( But wire your sign to the wreath....it is fairly easy to do. I also hot glued the sign as well to secure it really well!!
Step 6: Take your paint for the letters...I have foam letter stamps I used...you can paint it on yourself freehand...use vinyl..whatever you would like!!
ok that is cute! is that your hand writing? You have the cutest handwriting...it looks like it is vinyl because it is all perfect.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I saw wreaths like that at the craft store yesterday and was wondering what could be done with it. :) Thanks for the good idea. Looks like I will be off to the craft store again today.
