Fall Wreath Craft Ideas


I LOVE the fall! It’s not even September yet and I have my fall wreath up!  This past weekend Violet, a good friend and myself took time to make some fall wreaths!  I love craft days! 🙂 Thanks to my 40% off coupon from Michaels, it was a great deal. I made 2 wreaths with a ton of left over materials for $25.  I’m obsessed with burlap so I decided to make a burlap wreath.  Here we are at Michaels picking up items:

Here’s ALL of the supplies laid out …including pinterest ideas!  I really needed a good tutorial on how to make burlap roses.  I had to ditch Pinterest and go straight to Youtube.  I found a few tutorials on there, none that I’ll mention because somehow I made up my own version of how to make a burlap rose.  It involves LOTS of hot glue! 🙂

wrSee…my burlap roses are below 🙂

reatMy favorite part of the wreath was the $0.99 chalk board that I found on clearance.  It had a strange brown button on it that I covered up with a rose.  It was super light and I hot glued the heck of it to stick to my wreath. I found some adorable burlap leaves that you’ll see below.

  My biggest mistake was buying berries that were the same color as the wreath!  Wreath Fail.   BUT up close it does add something.  I LOVE how it turned out!  AND how my friends turned out below:un333named Happy Fall!! (ish)
