I found this totally cute easter wreath at Hobby Lobby, but the price tag said $40! For styrofoam, really? Then I noticed a sale tag for $20 and I still thought it was way too much.

So I set out for my local Dollar Tree. They had everything I needed. I grabbed some small sparkly eggs, a wreath, and I grabbed some larger eggs on sticks, but I didn't end up using them.
I spray painted the wreath white, although you cant see it anyway so you could probaly skip that step.
The eggs had little ribbon loops on them for hanging on a tree, so I just pulled them off and glued them on the wreath. That's pretty much all I did. I glued them all facing the same direction, and I only glued them in the front of the wreath.
I need to make a better bow for it, but I need some practice on that! I think it turned out pretty good in the end, especially because it only cost me about $9! Way better than $40 if you ask me!

Wow that looks great and I agree it looks even nicer and more professional than the $40 one!
ReplyDeleteI made a egg wreath last week. Using the wreath base is way smarter then how I tried to just glue them in a circle. Mine isn't perfect, but it's on my front door. :0
