Here's a super simple wreath that I put together in about an hour or less:
I bought a medium size wreath a few months back.
Ribbon $2.79 ea (sale)
4x6 Letter "S" $2.99
Velvety Maple Bouquet $1.99 (sale)
2 - Daisy/Mum Fall bouquet $3.49 ea. (sale)
Supplies needed:
Glue gun
Diagonal cutting pliers
Thin wire
I wrapped one spool of ribbon loosely around
the wreath and secured it in the back.
I created a bow with the second spool of ribbon
and secured it with thin crafting wire.
Make sure to leave a little ribbon at the end
to hand you letter from. This ended up being
too much so I simply made a few more loops
in my bow :O)
Attach the bow to the wreath with wire.
Cut the flowers off the bouquet as close to the
base as possible.
Arrange the flowers on the wreath simple by
weaving through the twigs of the wreath. This is
where you might need your glue gun. There
were a few flowers that were loose and not
fitting snugly through the vines of the wreath
so I just put a little glue and secured them
into place.
I wasn't planning on putting all the flowers
on but it just kind of ended up this way.
I could have gotten away with not wrapping
the first spool of ribbon around the wreath
since you can't even really see it. I could
have used both spools on making a
larger bow. (lesson learned!)
I spray painted the "S" with gold paint,
created a loop with the remainder of
the ribbon and secured it in the back...
Hung the "S"...
and Taaaaa-Daaaaaa!
Here you have a monogrammed wreath for Fall!
Hope you enjoyed :O) xoxo
