Semi-homemade Burlap Wreath


OK, the title is a little misleading. This wreath was mostly store-made, BUT I added a couple of my own touches to make it my own.

I bought a beautiful pink burlap wreath at Hobby Lobby the other day and had to have it. Partly because it happened to be 50% off and partly because I don't really have a pretty Spring/Summer wreath. It was a win-win!

It started out very simple and plain, so I bought a light-weight wooden "P", spray-painted it brown, then hot-glued it to the side. It needed a little pop of another color, so I just cut off a small strip of the green Greek key fabric I used as part of the Christmas tree skirt, and voila!!
It's not perfect by any means, but it'll do. It's great for Easter, Spring, and all the way through Summer!!

It was a quick, easy project that I had done in a matter of minutes. I like the idea of buying simple pieces, then adding my own touch to them to personalize them. 

Have you done any little projects lately? I'd love to hear about them!
