Hi there everyone! Hope all is well. Things are sort of hectic around here but in a good way I suppose. We are finally getting our master bathroom gutted out. That is another story that I probably will save for after the New Year. We knew the day would come that we had to, but I wasn’t planning on it quite yet. That’s how it goes I suppose.
Today, I am sharing a winter owl diy wreath.
My friend Ann (On sutton place)sent me this photo a few weeks ago and said she thought of me when she saw this. I of course thought it was darling and knew I would make one for the winter season. I’m all about the owls.
This was really fast and simple to make, I mean COPY:)

White craft paint or chalky paint
First I painted my grapevine wreaths with some chalky paint I had on hand. I wanted the wintery look and the paint did the trick. I like that faux snow spray but it sure is messy to work with and I didn’t want remnants of it all over the house.
The floral sprigs are just stuck in between the grapevine wreath. One pick down, one pick up as shown. The faux snow is lightly hot glued on and the wintery owl is hot glued on as well. He had a flapper of a tail so I put the hot glue on his tail so he would sit nicely in the snow. It’s sort of difficult taking pictures against the window. Especially when there is all the fall color behind. You will notice the hints of yellows, and oranges. Once I get shots of the entire room I think you will be able to get a better gist. I made two of these wreaths to go in each window.
I definitely stepped it up this year friends. No more Charlie Brown tree..or Christmas tie mantel.
I was pretty lame last year if I do say so myself.
I am pretty excited for Christmas this year and that is why I started early. Besides, blogs are like retail, we start when the stores do.
It’s going to quite festive this year.
I am not alone and I am sure you are starting to see a lot of Christmas decorating ideas already.
Thanks so much for stopping by today. If you are new here, I hope you come by again.
I know my wreath doesn’t look as swanky as the copy! But I can tell you, I spent around $20.00-$25.00 for two of them. I wanted to go as budget friendly as possible.
I am into wreaths in the windows this year.

I really like your wreath.Lovely job. Where do you buy these white owls? I love owls. Live in Va. Thank you.

Beautiful Debbie….I have a large box of winter owls…so you have just inspired me!…
Cute. I might not use this for Christmas. But, I love it for a wintertime decoration.
Cute, Cute, Cute!
So, so cute. In SE Texas, we don’t get snow so I need a wreath for January and table decor for hosting our dinner club. This gives me an idea to go with. January is a little early to think about summer decor even though we could be running our air conditoning then.
Where did you find such a cute owl?
I source it in the post under supplies needed to make your own:) Click on it and you can buy them. They come in a back of two.
love, love, love
Your wreath is as cute as cute can be! Love that little owl! Thanks, Debbie!
Well I must tell you “I like yours better than the copy”. The red n white ribbon and touch of red berries along with the colorful Ho Ho Hos really makes your lil owl pop. I have been wanting an owl (love em) so ‘Tis the Season’ for an owl in my house!
Wow a bathroom remodel right in the middle of the holidays! You guys are very ambitious; I understand if it’s a bathroom ‘issue’ it need to be dealt with NOW. God luck and have a nice week end.
Yes Carol, I know..we are crazy. It sort of was a now issue. I will talk about it after the Holiday. Have a great weekend.
