Hi Girls!
I'm super excited to show you my new Valentine's Wreath! Last year I made this one, but I up-cycled it into this one for St. Pattys, so I had no choice but to make a new one. :)
When I started out, I was looking to do a tradish wreath--you know, red and purple flowery-thingys. THEN, as I sat down to make it I got the BRILLIANT (if I do say so myself, and I do) idea to make a donut wreath. Ah yeah, that's what's doin for Val 2012!
Wanna see how I did it? Cause I really wanna show you! :)
Ingredient List:
Socks--I used 7 pairs of little boys, 8-2
Sheets of Felt
Beads
Hot Glue
Wreath--I used a 10inch form wrapped in purple yarn
OPTIONAL:
Scrapbook Paper to add a Pennant-Like Message
1. I made up 7 mini donuts (the same ones as I use in my hair) using little boys socks, size 8-2. Why I had these? Zero idea. I ended up doubling up the socks--rolling one into a donut, then taking another and rolling it up into a double donut. Ohhhh, double donut? Gimme 5, right now!
2. Felt Frosting time! I used hot pink, violet and red felt, then traced the bangle to use as my circle.
3. Once you have a circle cut out, fold as shown, and snip off the middle to make the opening of your frosting.
4. This is more of a "TAH DAH!" photo only :) Oh, and get your "sprinkles" ready.
5. Freehand a scallop edge around your frosting. Hot glue the top of your donut and set frosting atop. Add your sprinkles to your liking--I like LOTS of sprinkles. SHOCKER.
6. Another "TAH DAH!" Photo :)
Here's your Optional Step:
I used my Sily and cut out this "Love" Shape and just glued it to a piece of scrap ribbon. Then it just glued to the back of the wreath. Easy, girl.
Your final step! Glue your donuts around your wreath. Things that are easy for $1000. :) You know what's next, right? YOU ROCK IT, GIRL!!!! Rock it like you MADE it. Like you MADE a KICKASS DONUT wreath. CAUSE YOU DID! And now all your neighbors are jealy. You're welcome.
Thanks for hanging!
