Do it yourself...



First of all, if your not following me on Pinterest...you can do it



Second, I did try a do it yourself project from Pinterest Sunday.  And if I do say so myself, it turned out quite well.  Here are the details...




Inspiration...



1. buy a grapevine wreath. they come in many sizes, keep in mind the bigger you get the more hydrangea's you will have to buy.  ( I got an 18")



2. buy however many hydrangea's it will take to fill your wreath however you want it.  I planned on stuffing mine full just like my inspiration photo.  BUT I didn't get as many as I really needed and I ended up making a little different of a design.


3. cut your hydrangea's stems (about 3") or however thick your grapevine wreath is...you will want a little sticking out so you can hot glue it.  



4. stick all your hydrangea's in the wreath, arranging them however you prefer.  

*note, the grapevine wreath makes a MESS... so do this outside or have a broom close by. 

5. hot glue around each hydrangea stem to make it stick to the wreath. 

6. hang your wreath on a door, wall, or in front of an old window
... and enjoy!




I loved how mine turned out! 

How bout you? Have you made a wreath before?!
