my new spring wreath! {trash to treasure}

With the nice weather we've had lately, it feels like SPRING could arrive... someday!

This week I made a new wreath..... and the best part was that all the supplies I used were things I already had!




I had used this glittery wreath form for a project in the past, so I stripped it down to use for my new spring wreath!




I used some extra fabric I had after I hemmed curtains & cut it into strips.




I folded each strip so that the frayed ends wouldn't show & began gluing the fabric around the wreath.






I had this once it was all covered...




I whipped up some super easy flowers to girly it up a bit!
{The pink ones are my Easy Felt Flowers}




I love the pink & grey & white flowers together!

Such an easy transformation from my wreath form & fabric that I would have otherwise thrown away!
