Today I am going to share with you a Diy Christmas wreath,
on a budget, and something you can do with friends for a fun girls night out together.
First start with a plain green wreath…
found this at Walmart for 2.50.
I had most the embellishments, ribbon, burlap and some pretty material.
Oh and a music book.
Next, be sure everyone has a glass of wine:}
or beverage of choice of course.
We each cut the sheet music, material and burlap
just in squares for most.
Some were cut in strips for example the sheet music.
This is my friend Leanne….she is the artsy fartsy yogi one!
Adorable!
We just had fun being creative…
in fact Leanne said this was the first time in her life she had ever made a wreath.
Laurian, who is the piano teacher…made a pretty one for her Man…who is a guitar teacher.
All very personalized.
And then there is Jenny de lips wreath. She claims to be a non-crafty gal.
I think she did pretty good. She did however, receive a tad bit of help..those bows are tricky I must say.
And here is my Diy Christmas Kitchen wreath, which I absolutely ADORE…
my favorite ever.
Simply tied pieces of burlap and twine
I admit, I did not make the burlap bow.
I have been playing around with the settings on my camera and trying to use more manual mode. I have a lot of practicing to do for sure.
Wishing you all a very lovely happy and festive Holiday season.
See you again real soon.
I am trying to squeeze in all my Holiday decor before Christmas is over.
P.S. This Holiday wreath was made for under $5.00!
You sure can’t beat that.
As you can see, I love burlap projects…
You may check out my gallery for a few more that I have done, well it’s more than a few, but you can see for yourself.

December 16 at 10:46 amDebbie, I just love those wreaths! Especially the one with the wooden spoons. How fun to get together with girlfriends and do a craft. Might have to steal that idea!
Off topic, but I have a hard time getting your blog to load. Has anyone else said anything to you? If not, it is probably just my computer.
Have a great day!
