Easy Flower Wreath

Make an easy flower wreath with this fun tutorial from Jamielyn Nye. Using only fabric, glue and a pre-made wreath you can have this pretty DIY wreath for the summer; great for decorating ideas.

Materials:

• Wreath
• Spray Paint
• Fabric
• Hot Glue Gun
   

Instructions:

1. I started out with this ugly wreath from Michaels (that cost about $2). Next I spray painted it robbin egg blue. Make sure to do a few coats to get through all the branches!
   
    
    
2. Then I made a few different kind of fabric flowers. I mainly made these rolled flowers, but the blue one is a fire flower!!
3. I laid them all down on the wreath and decided it needed to be a little different... a little more summery!
   
   
    
4. So I made a few ruffled flowers to go underneath the rolled flowers. This was all using scrap fabric... a great way to use it up! I also added some tulle in between the layers as well. Tulle just makes everything cuter!
5. After I knew I had everything where I wanted it, I began hot-gluing it down. Don't you just love those things? You can tell mine has been used A LOT!
   
   
    
6. Then I made a "sash" for it to hang by...you could just use a fat ribbon for this part...but I didn't have a white ribbon as big as I wanted...so I decided to make it. I used that fabric on these curtains. Same technique!
   
   
    
7. After I made my sash I sewed it on top to give it extra strength and hung it over my mirror.
