New Spring Farmhouse Wreath Using a Thrifted Wicker Paper Plate Holder

 


I painted the wooden letters with espresso brown acrylic paint from WalMart

using the I Love sign I painted the back with moss green acrylic paint 



I used Aleene's Tacky glue to attach the wooden letters.  Digging through my craft stash I found this galvanized Happy word I  of pulled off another sign purchased from Dollar Tree.
Using a chalk pen I outlined the letters in Spring and went around the edge of the moss green rectangle board.


The sign wasn't setting in place very well so using a glue gun and three jenga blocks



I did a simple bow with burlap ribbon and a little black rickrack



This project was very simple, but I think it turned out nice and I used items I already had in my craft stash.

Thank you for stopping by, come again to see what kind of project I'll be doing next.

Winter Rustic/Farmhouse Mantel Display

Winter 

This has taken me a while to get all of my DIY project done that I wanted to try this year, so as you can see I have add a few new DIY's to my winter farmhouse mantel decor.  

One of the DIY's is the giant snow flake made from craft sticks, this was a every easy project.  

The pine cone wreath that was made from items I already had on hand.
Two clear vases I gave a face lift by adding burlap, and filler of little painted fir cones that I collected last summer, the two pine cone garlands and Yarn pom-pom snow balls.

I did bring back the frosted pine cone and the fore-birch back candles. I made for my farmhouse decor last winter
  I really like how the mantel came out this season. 

Thank you for checking in to see this working in progress of my winter mantel.

Until the next project............

 take care, Vicki

Winter Pine Cone Wreath Project For my Mantel

I have always incorporated pine cone into my Fall, Christmas and winter decor as filler, but this year I have decided to go a bit further by making a few pine cone projects to add to my winter decor.




I always have a bag of pine cones on hand for craft projects. 



I used a willow wreath from Dollar Store, my glue gun and a stash of pine cones 





I used some ribbons I had on hand and tried to make a crazy bow like Tracy at crazy bow



The bow was easy to make, but in my opinion, I need more practice making this style of bow.

Hope you enjoyed this diy Pine Cone Wreath project using items from nature, in my winter decor.

Thanks for stopping by, until the next project.

DYI- Thrifted Heart Shape Twig Wreath

A thrift heart shape wreath, I believe I paid $.50 from my January 2019 Thrift Haul

I removed as much of the old hot glue and greenery as I could, I also trimmed up the center twigs.  I had some left over Spanish moss from another project, using Aleene's Tacky Glue, I applied the moss to the wreath.  When the moss applied wreath was dry I attached the burlap ribbon bow  with hot glue.


I really like how this project turned out.

Thank you for stopping by,

DYI - Valentine Wreath "'Dollar Tree" make over

Using a grapevine wreath I had, I added some of the Black and White Checked material and thin red ribbon and wrapped around the grapevine wreath. 
Next I added some of the little wooden hearts that I bought at "The Dollar Tree" that were a welcome sign and chalk painted white



and also added the letters to spell the word love from the yard of  black and white checked fabric, using stencils I had in my craft supply box.

I used wide popsicle stick from Walmart and laid out the letter heart out and glued to popsicle stick, then attached it to the ribbon on the grapevine wreath to get a 


I added a bow made from the 2 inch wired burlap ribbon from "The Dollar Tree "store and a 2 inch strip of the black and white checked fabric.  I think I should have added another black and white checked ribbon on top of the burlap bow.

I hope I gave you some decor  ideas to implement into your home decor for February.

New Vintage looking Diy Easter Wreath for my Home


Easter Greetings


I found this very cute vintage looking greeting sign at Dollar Tree, this year and wanted to incorporated this sign into my farmhouse spring décor.


Using Dollar Tree burlap ribbon, I cut many 4-5 inch strips and tied the burlap strips with brown pipe cleaner to a circular wire wreath form.


Then I added a few strips of green mesh through out the form, also from Dollar Tree



Here I'm trying to fluff the burlap the finished project.


I really like how the vintage looking door wreath turned out.


Hope you enjoyed this easy diy to add to your Spring décor.


Thank you for stopping by and have a Great Day!
