Halloween Wreath


Cost came to around $9.50 and this project was a pain to figure out. Bought a wreath ring, which can be purchased in different sizes at most craft stores.  I bought this one at Michaels for $3.50+tax and the mesh fabric at Wal-Mart for .98¢ a yard. Came out cute but like I said, pain to make, took 3 hours.  After I worked out the kinks I think it would have taken a little over an hour.  Got the idea from here .  Good luck.

Autumn Flower Wreath


Did this Autumn Flower Wreath for our church Craft the Night Away.  Got the idea from Here but changed it up.  I didn’t like the flowers all over the wreath.  The larger wreath cost around $7.00, bought the wreath at Wal-Mart for $3.50+ tax and then the felt at Jo-Anns but you can buy it anywhere.  As for the smaller wreath, it was around $4.50, bought the wreath at the Dollar Store and used the same flowers.  If you need to know how to make the flowers go here.

Santa Key




I saw this idea on another blog but her file was too small to make my own so I made one for my family. It you would like a copy of the file go to my Etsy Shop here and buy it for $1.00.

"It’s the night before Christmas & we’re excited as can be. 
We’re leaving this out for you…it’s a very special key.
You can shimmy down the chimney, or tiptoe through the door.
Just use this key we left for you to find cookies, milk, & more!"

Noel


This came off better than I thought it would, I got the idea from here but I down sized it and it only cost about $12.00 but you can get the letters $3.00 cheaper at Hobby Lobby.  I glued the letters together first, 2nd painted and last sprayed with Mod Podge Clear Acrylic Sealer.  If I had to do it again I would have primed the press board letters before painting them, it took 3 coats of paint.
