Hi there! It’s Kimberly from A Night Owl and I’m here to share another craft with you! Last time I shared a quick and easy tutorial on how to make a Royal Tee T-Shirt Stamp for the kiddos, but today I’m sharing a craft for us – a Framed Spring Wreath! I simply adore wreaths and making them. They’re such an easy way to change up and liven your home decor.
And this simple Spring wreath is so easy to put together. I came upon this lovely green garland at one of my {many} Hobby Lobby trips lately and I adored the color and knew I had to find a way to incorporate it in our home! Plus it was 50% off that day, so I HAD to buy it, right? It sat there for a few weeks before I realized what I wanted to do with it. And after spending weeks trying to come up with an idea for a new Spring wreath it hit me: this garland would make a lovely wreath! So I got to work – here’s how I made it.
SUPPLIES:
- Open frame
- Greenery garland
- Floral wire
- Burlap
- Scissors
- Hot glue
- Thumbtacks
DIRECTIONS:
I started out by forming the long green garland into a circular wreath shape.
Once it was the size I wanted and I felt like the leaves were in a good place, I used simple green floral wire to secure it in three different places.
And voila! A lovely Springy wreath – in it’s own right. But I also wanted to add a few more elements not directly to the wreath, so I thought it would look great hung from an open frame.
I grabbed a lovely open frame I had recently picked up from Goodwill (I knew it would be put to good use), some burlap ribbon, my hot glue gun and a couple of thumbtacks.
Then I cut the burlap ribbon to a length that would hang the wreath from the top of the frame just where I wanted. I looped the ribbon through the wreath and secured it to the top center back of the frame with hot glue first, then added a few thumbtacks for added stability.
And here is the finished product!
I love how it turned out and am happy to finally be bringing some Spring into our home! What Spring projects have you been tackling lately?
