Who's looking for decor that will go the extra mile.... past the easter eggs and bunnies... maybe even past our town's tulips.... So here is what I came up with and the step by step instructions on the project.
There are so many cute ideas on Pintrest that I have seen that I adore.... but how to incorporate these ideas... without having 87 wreaths, and 8 plastic totes full of different floral choices... all of which I wish we had the storage for... but alas... we do not... what's a girl to do?
Got myself a few photos/ideas from Pintrest that I really liked. I have provided the link to the blogs and the photos below...
Chevron Print - really trendy print right now - so I made a template out of cardboard just like on this website:www.pennypincherfashion.com
I loved these colors - yellow and teal - and the cute simple message of this wreath.... from www.agirlandagluegun.comSo.... I gathered my materials....
Cardboard Template
Poster board - Walmart -- .97
Yellow Paint - Bright Yellow - Walmart - $1.97
Teal Paint - Bimini Blue - Walmart - .57
Yellow Polka Dot Ribbon - Dollar Tree - $1.00
Picture Frame - Mahaska Co. Outreach - $2.00
See my picture/print out of my collaboration of ideas.. Always nice to see your inspiriation in front of you.....
Next Step, I took the picture frame apart - the mat and picture was all moldy and gross, so no love lost in getting rid of that. All I have left is the frame....
I painted the frame the teal....
Then I traced the chevron template onto the poster board, and painted the stripes in with the Bright Yellow paint.
I cut the painted poster board to fit the frame...
Cut out the wording "Hi" on my Cricut - I layered it up with grey houndstooth and black paper...
Glued the wording to the board, and inserted into the frame.
Added the yellow polka dotted ribbon - stapled to the backside of the frame.
Tied a ribbon and hung on the door! - Hi! Have you met our front door?
Welcome to our home!
