Well, It's February, which means...
Time for a new wreath!!
Okay, so this is it:
And this is how I got there:
I took a length of plumbers' pipe insulation that I got at Home Depot for 97 cents and cut it in half.
(It will be saved for the next wreath)
I then took out all my pink and red and white fabric scraps and cut them with pinking shears into 1x9or10 inch strips.
I then took them and started wrapping the wreath using small straight pins to secure them.
(The benefit of using this pipe insulation besides being cheap is that you can pin into it without it poking through and it holds better than any glue!)
In the interest of using less pins, I used the same one that ended the previous strip to start the new one.
I then picked the side that had the least pins sticking out of it and attached the big bow.
For this I used a dot of E600 glue (That's miracle stuff!) and then pinned it in place using 2 more straight pins.
It looks good now, but it will look better when it's hanging on the door of my own house!
