I know its early for fall, but this will make a great fall wreath.
Few weeks back, our tree in our yard got a little trim and there were a lot of dried branches which I collected that day in hopes of doing something with it. It has been in our garage for quiet sometime and finally I came up with this.
I have seen similar products in stores and they cost a good amount of money. Mine was totally free and that's why I love mine even more..:)
You'll need:
----------------
A flat cardboard cut in wreath form.
Dried sticks
Glue Gun
Patience...:)
Steps:
-------
Glue sticks around the wreath till its full and all the gaps are hidden.
First I had one layer of sticks covering the whole area, but I could still see cardboard underneath. So had to stick another layer where ever I saw some gaps.

ReplyDeleteThank you Debra for your sweet comment..:)
DeleteIt looks so pretty and easy to make..though you're right you need a lot of patience to get all those sticks in place...
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining The Really crafty Link Party this week. Pinned!
Very nice! I love the price tag, too! Our trees are always shedding and this would be a great way to upcycle the branches; using them as kindling gets old!
ReplyDeleteOh I love this! Great idea for a multi-seasonal wreath that costs absolutely nothing to make.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty and simple wreath.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so lovely! I might have a go at this. Thanks for the idea :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a minimalistic and elegant Autumn design! Thank you for the tip!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful wreath from the simplest materials. Featuring when my link party opens up!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great wreath!
