My new favorite website is Pintrest.com. I have gotten a lot of great ideas off here so far. Most of them have been food related but not all. This is one that I saw on there. When I went back to find it I could not so I had to improvise when I went to the store.
Materials:
- 8inch wreath (this one happens to be made of sticks)
- 6ft green feather boa
- Decorations
- Hot Glue Gun
Steps:
- Start wrapping the boa around the wreath. I originally started just to make sure I had a long enough boa and never too it off.
- I tied the two ends together at the top. There were little string loops there so they made a natural hook too.
- Little blob of hot glue just to keep it all in place.
- I then used the hot glue to put all the decorations on. And that is it.
Things I learned:
- Don't use too much glue or it will make the feathers look flat.
- Lay your design out twice and glue once
- If your glue gun gets too hot it can melt things.
I think this came out super cute. My bows need some help though. It is a skill I am still trying to work on. The original picture I saw online looked like yarn instead of boa but I think you would need a lot. I am going to try to do a few others in the near future so I will post pictures when I do.
