Fall Wreath

Yeah so, I haven't posted in forever.  Oops.  Just going to try to jump back into it. 

In January, I made a burlap wreath as part of my craft month of my 30 day challenge.  (Side note, so much for the 30 day challenge - I definitely did NOT keep up with that this year!)  I liked the wreath & the colors used in the wreath but over time I just didn't like how it looked against our door & with the color of our brick.  The colors just didn't mesh.  But I left it up because I didn't have a quick fix.

One day I randomly realized there are other colors of burlap ribbon out there.  Duh.  Sorry guys, I'm not a seasoned crafter!  A trip to Joann's Fabric & about 30 minutes while the boys were napping, I had myself a new wreath.  

I like the dark brown against our door.  I'm still a little undecided on the flowers.  I was going to just do one but Alex said they should both be on there (he woke up when I was finishing it).  I may change it up later.  

If you need a wreath for your door, burlap ones are so easy!  I promise - if I can do it, anyone can!
