This weekend I began creating a really cool DIY wreath that I found on Homemade By Jill 's website. She has directions for making the craft with pictures. A great tutorial. I used Loctite for the spray adhesive and it worked great. I decided to use a brown colored card stock. The card stock holds up best fora project like this. I used a 10 inch foam wreath. I am so excited with how it turned out. I think that it would be a great gift to give someone. I am planning on making one using blues/silvers or reds for the holidays. It is such an easy decoration to make for any season. It would be fun to use pastel colors for a spring theme! Here's a few photos of how mine turned out.
Here's how I tied my bow...
Step 1. Find the center of your ribbon and make a crease by folding it.
Step 2. Fold two "rabbit ears" keeping the crease as your center.
Step 3. Make a knot by tying the ears together.
Step 4. Work the bow so that it looks even on both sides.
I hope this has sparked an idea for you!
Thanks for the idea Jill!
Beautiful!
