Happy Friday,
As you know I have been obsessed with wreaths lately. I loved my St. Patrick's Day Wreath I did not too long ago but it's already time to put up an Easter one.
I purchased a twig wreath at Hobby Lobby for $4.99 and used a 40% off coupon via their store app.
I also used Spanish moss. I had PLENTY moss left over from my moss ball craft so I didn't have to buy any.
I bought a pack of Easter eggs. They had lots of colors and sizes to choose from. At Hobby Lobby all of the Easter crafts were 50% off. :) This bag was only .50!
To start, squeeze hot glue onto the wreath in small sections.
Then top with moss. I had to use scissors to cut apart sections of moss so it was easier to work with.
I just went around the front, I didn't worry about covering the back.
Then I cut twine into 3 strips.
And hot glued the tips to the top of the eggs. Make sure these are completely dry before working with them.
Next I hot glued the strings, at different lengths, to the back of the wreath. If I had any extra string hanging off I just cut it. Again, make sure it is completely dry before moving the wreath around.
Then I had some extra burlap ribbon. It was really wide so I cut it in half.
Then I tied it into a bow. I used the same method as tying a shoe. :)
And here is the finished wreath!
I like that it is really simple.
Here is another variation.
I love it!
You could add more eggs to the middle, of different sizes, too. Or you could change up the color of the bow by getting a different ribbon. I thought about wrapping more burlap along the outside of the wreath, too. Lots of different ways you could play with this wreath or add to it. :)
I hope you enjoyed!
Check back for more creativity soon,
Cassie
