Bat {Wreath}

Last year I made this burlap wreath from a wire wreath and burlap ribbon. It's an awesome base wreath for every season. This year I went for more of a halloween theme because of our halloween party, I really like how it turned out! To make the bats, I used different sized sheets of card stock and scissors. I folded the paper in half and drew and cut out the bat shape, when you unfold you have a perfectly symmetrical bat! I also added an extra fold to the wings to give it a little more depth. 

{DIY Fall Wreath}

I've not been very good at posting lately, with my Job switching to part time I'm excited to have more time for new projects and more posting! Here is the latest:

 

Ohh intsagram, how you make it so much easier to share my life with the rest of the world! Wish I would have used my 'nice' camera to take pictures of the process, but my phone is so much more convenient! 

After searching Pinterest  for a few days I finally found an easy, affordable wreath idea for the fall. I used two differently tutorials to help me figure out the details of making the basic French styled burlap wreath. Then I added a fall ribbon to make it a bit more festive! The 'fall ribbon' is easy to remove, so I'm planning on using this wreath for many different seasons with different embellishments! 

I bought all of my supplies from Michaels for under $25! 

You will need:
2 rolls of Burlap Ribbon
Festive Ribbon
Scissors
Floral Wire
Wire Wreath (If you get a larger size wreath you will need more burlap)
You will also need at least 2 hours to complete the eniter project :-)

Here are the tutorials I used : 'The Sassy Momma' & 'My Crazy Good Life'

These blogs have a ton a details and measurements, I found them very helpful! Ok, now go have fun making your wreath!
