Burlap Wreath

After the Christmas wreath came down, our front door was looking pretty bare. I had trouble deciding what to hang because I really didn’t want anything too seasonal or holiday specific. I had in mind a year-round wreath that I wouldn’t have to change out unless I wanted. So, I settled on burlap and got in touch with my crafty side…

 I’m pleased with the way it turned out.

This wreath was fairly easy to make {it took me a few hours, but I’m slow and had some interruptions} and the whole project cost me around 10 bucks. Can’t beat that.

I followed this great little tutorial that I found here. {This blog is fantastic, by the way! So many cute ideas}. There is also a Valentine’s Day version. I might try the heart next year, but since V-day is less than a week a way, I decided it wasn’t worth the effort this year.

I did add my own touch with a raffia bow instead of the burlap bow shown. Thought it needed a little pop of color. The great thing about this wreath is that you can use it all year and embellish it with various ribbons/seasonal decor.

Have fun with it, and make it your own!
