Anyhow, I'm posting my first entry into the Craft Challenge. I give you, my dollar store craft! :) Surprise, surprise...it's a wreath! Hey, I needed something quick & easy to get my feet wet. Not sure if we're posting step by step photos, but I'll do it this time. If you think this is unnecessary, let me know.
Materials
wreath form (don't get the floral foam one like I did)
2 Easter garlands
1 pkg plastic Easter eggs (I only used 3)
ribbon
hot glue
First, I glued the end of the first garland to my wreath form.
Next, I started wrapping. This was a small wreath form, so this only took a few minutes and one garland covered about half of it. When I added the second garland, I made sure to hot glue the end of it to my first garland as well.
Here's what it looks like all wrapped, then it was time to add the accessories!
Okay, so I guess I should say, the ribbon I already had. I believe it came off a baby shower gift (that's how come the bow is so perfect...) that I got when I was pregnant with Katie. It was too adorable to throw away though, so it's been hanging out with my craft stuff waiting for the perfect project. I think it looks pretty adorable here! P.S. Do I get bonus points for completing this during naptime?? :)
