I love how it turned out. It’s light and airy so I can hang it from the top of the hutch and still see my plates and knick knacks.
For this wreath, I used dollar store flowers. The quality is so-so but it’s easy to make even the cheapest faux flowers look better.
With cheap flowers, often times it’s the plastic stems that make them look very fake. I cut off all the stems from the pink peonies and other accent flowers before I hot glued them to the hoop.
For the cascading cherry blossoms, I covered the horrible brown plastic stems with bits of moss. I also added a real stem of ivy give the wreath a more realistic look.
I’m thrilled with how this Spring Hoop Wreath turned out. I’ve actually moved it and it’s hanging on the far right since taking these photos.
Now I can enjoy Peonies throughout spring even if they’re cheap dollar store flowers.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

ReplyDeleteSo pretty!
ReplyDeleteLovely wreath! They must be the prettiest dollar store flowers I have seen! I am always amazed to see how you turn dollar store items to something special!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I was going to create the very same type of thing but I don't have enough of a coloured flowers, only white. So I'm going to have to grab myself another bunch :) found you via a lovely linky party!
