Spring Door Ornament

I was in a " Springy" mood

My daughter still has her Christmas Wreath up
so I thought it was time to get it changed


Some of the items I had on hand
a few I bought at the dollar store
 (sorry abt the out of focus picture
 I thought I had the auto focus on)


I cut the block in half 
stuffed newspaper in the bottom
of the basket



then I just stuck the flowers
in random order






I thought I had brown filler
but I didn't
so I cut a lunch bag


then threw a crimper



then a shredder



then filled around the base of the flowers


attached a bow
and a hanging cord
and Viola!!

Spring Wreath

I wanted a Spring wreath
but I couldn't figure out what I wanted
until....
I came across this....
Patty has a great tutorial
on how to do it
It gave me the inspiration I needed


I needed mine to be bigger
and because I couldn't 
find a Styrofoam
one large enough
I ended up with a straw one
I did not take the plastic off of it


I wanted something that
I could change

Right now it has
Easter eggs


after Easter
I will change it out
to flowers
I got the eggs and ribbon at The Dollar tree
I ended up using 3 skeins of yarn
All total came to $11.50
Most of the items were on sale

Bring in the Spring
