Luckily, I am friends with many people who also
enjoy their share of crafts as much as I do. This past November, we were
able to finally have our first “Craft Night”. Thanks to Ellen for hosting
it at her apartment! The girls planned to gather all of their wreath
materials and bring them to “Craft Night”.
It was such a fun night full of food, drinks, and
best of all CRAFTS! Even the guys joined in and had their own “Craft (Beer)
Night”. (I should have taken a picture of them and their beers!)
Anyways down to the nitty gritty.
DIY Holiday
Wreath:
(How I made my wreath this
year. Perfect for the winter season!)
Materials:
•
Hot Glue Gun & Hot Glue Sticks
•
Wire cutters
Assorted artificial Embellishments (such as flower stems and sprays)
Directions:
1. Find inspiration.
Before I create anything, of course I have to find
inspiration from Pinterest.
When I went into Michael’s to start collecting
supplies, I also found this pre-made one for sale that also inspired the concept
of my wreath:
2. Gather embellishments.
3. Spray Paint the
wreath and allow time to dry before attaching embellishments.
(I recommend waiting a day or two after spray painting.)
4. Arrange
your embellishments.
5. Trim and hot glue the
embellishments onto the wreath.
When “craft night” finally arrived, I took all of my
materials out of the bag and started to arrange, trim the pieces with wire
cutters, and hot glue it between the grapevines.
6. Admire your wreath as you allow
time to dry from attaching the embellishments.
Wa-la! Greet “Happy
Holiday” to guest that arrive to your doorstep!
(Here are the other girls' wreaths as
well! Love all of the creativity!)
Stay crafty my friends!
