Easy Wreath

My Mom had this wreath in her goodwill pile this past weekend. I've been wanting a wreath for our back porch for a while now...so I snatched it in hopes that I could make it come to life....
In the midst of spraying a dozen other things white over the weekend this wreath got caught up in the paint. It was surprisingly really easy to spray. Only took about two coats on each side and she was done.
 I tried to get creative and think of something fun for Christmas I could do with it...like add ornaments or Christmas ribbon. So far, all I've come up with is this burlap ribbon. I made it from burlap I bought at Lowe's. Did you know that you can buy burlap at Lowe's? Well you can. It's in the garden section. It comes in a roll and is great because it has edges that are seamed together - which is great for projects like this.

At least with just simple burlap I can keep it up after Christmas...here's to a very easy project!

Door Jam.

I updated our front door with some Christmas goodness. I made these wreaths last year using this tutorial. They were really easy to make and are very easy to update from year to year.
 I did just that this year. I added a little more silvery bling to each of them. I'm debating the addition of some fun blue ornaments...just to get crazy with it:)
Our front door is ready for the holidays!

Burlap Wreath LURVE

I don't just love wreaths...I lurve them. Like a lot. I love to make them. Most people put them on their front door. I put them everywhere. I'm such a weirdo. Talon would agree. This is another great and easy project from Jones Design Company. It's super easy and looks great in every room. I have mine in our entry way hanging over a mirror. I've also had it in our kitchen. The red ribbon was added for a Christmasy touch in December. I haven't changed it because I like the pop of color or maybe I'm just lazy. You can find the complete tutorial on the Jones Design Company blog. Such a fun project for your house. It also makes an excellent gift.
I've made several other wreaths that I can't wait to share!
