easter fun!

Ever since Valentines Day I have been obsessed with different ways that I can make a wreath. I find it really relaxing to do these types of projects, plus it gives me something to do during the boys nap time.

  Materials Used
large foam wreath
7 various ribbon (hobby lobby and Michaels)
box of thin pins
small easter bunny (found mine at Michael's)
Scissors




Start with a foam wreath, I have only used white foam wreaths, but I am sure any color is fine.



I chose 7 different types of ribbon, and cut them to fit around the wreath


The back isn't as pretty, but no one will see this!


This is the front of the wreath, try to have a good mix of ribbon


Here I am placing the purple ribbon, I fasten one side...


and now I fasten the other side with a pin


all done on the back!


continue until all of the foam wreath is covered in ribbon, remember be creative!


I attached my small easter bunny friend, and some ribbon up to for the bow...

We are ready for Easter!

    I love it! Seriously! This is genius! I wish I could find a white foam wreath. The only ones I ever find are green. I think it would show through the ribbon. Very creative!! Thanks so much for sharing. :)

    I love this wreath. It's so bright and cheerful!

    You had left a comment on my blog "Diddles & Dumplings" saying you were from Visalia, CA... Well, believe it or not, I live in Visalia! Crazy, right? What are the odds? How did you find my blog?
