Fall DIY Wreath

Fall is in the air, y'all!

September through November is most definitely my favorite time of year. The weather turns cooler but not cold, I can wear cardigans and not sweat to deff, and let's not forget scarves and all things pumpkin!

Check out this sweet candle and holder I got from Kohl's.

It's pumpkin-something. And I love it.

Ahem.

So with it being time for all things wonderful, aka fall, I thought I would attempt to make my first fall wreath. Last year I never really had time or desire to really decorate for the season. We did have two pumpkins that rotted on the front porch, though. Gross.

I got these supplies (5 bunches of silk flowers and a 16" grapevine wreath) from Michael's for a whopping $10.32.

It is optional {but totally necessary} to have coffee and
Pinterest nearby when you begin this sort of project :) 

My only tool that I needed was a really awesome pair of scissors. If you don't own a really awesome pair of scissors, then you should probably get some wire cutters. Might have been easier if I had those. My hands got tired, and my husband had to cut the stems for me. :-)

I cut all the stems as long as possible. I figured if I needed to trim them I could. Then I just started playing with the colors and sizes of the silk flowers and sticking them in the wreath. 

I decided about halfway through that I wanted this to be an indoor wreath so I could enjoy it. I don't stare at my front door very often.

Loving my candle. And I had a few silks leftover for a little candle wreath.

Once I finished, I stuck it on my mantle and admired it. Today, I went to Hobby Lobby with Melba and found the cutest little "R" to add to it.

I just stuck it on there. I probably should find some type of wire/glue/twine/ribbon to hold it on better. But the "R" just makes the wreath perfect. I love it.

 I couldn't have done this project without the help of this girl:

Little Lola

She's such a creative genius. ;-P

Thanks for stopping by!
