I've ALWAYS wanted to make my own wreath, but I never really looked into it. I was planning on making my first one during Christmas. I haven't made anything crafty in a long time and I decided to try this on a whim because I walked through an aisle in Michaels and saw instructions on how to do it. LOL! It said Level - Easy, and yes... After I figured out what the hell I was doing and was in the zone it was actually pretty easy.
Without the wreath holder, I spent about $20 (I applied a small coupon) on the materials and only an hour of my time to make it. Way better than spending $50+ on Etsy (and hey there's nothing wrong with that if that's your thing, I LOVE BUYING STUFF OFF OF ETSY!).
Supplies from Michaels:
Wreath $5.99
Wreath hanger $4.99
Bow $3.99 (Half off)
Burlap $4.39 (Half off)
Lace burlap $4.99 (Half off)
Wire $1.99
It didn't come out exactly what I had envisioned, but I am happy with it overall. Just like with anything, practice makes perfect! I can't wait to try making a mesh style one next for Christmas!
