Well, all you AU fans will appreciate this posting and all you thrifty/crafty ones will appreciate it too. I noticed this mesh wreathes on an Esty website going for about 75 bucks. Yeah, I wanted one but not for that price......thought to myself.......try makin' one!
Bought some wooden letters at Michael's for about 1.50 ea.....wanted bigger ones but oh well! Bought some paint. Already had the circle foam paint brush thingy.....got busy paintin'.
Bough the wide ribbon mesh last year during an after-Christmas sale. That saved me some $$$$! Used pipe-cleaners to attach the ribbon to wreath. As you can see, I used a grapevine wreath. Got it 1/2 price at Hobby Lobby....that saved me some $$$$!
Alternated the colors......
Hung by front door so EVERYONE can see my talent...hehe and say WAR EAGLE!
Pretty nifty for about 20 bucks compared to 75 bucks! WAR EAGLE!!! WAR EAGLE!!!!
That is a fun wreath Tonya! I love those colors.
ReplyDeleteWar Eagle!! Love your wreath! I bought some of that mesh ribbon this weekend too, but I got Christmas colors. Now I've got to go back to see if they have Auburn colors! Thanks for the idea!
