Scarecrows, Harvest, and the Colors of Fall



Another fabulous fall wreathe in under an hour thanks to +Hobby Lobby, +Dollar Tree, and +Family Dollar  for some great deals.

I had some leftover materials left from other projects, so I had fewer floral wires to clip.  This is a great option for preventing leftover craft items from going to waste.  I like to prep all my materials first and lay them out before I begin gluing anything on.

I purchased the wreathe, sparkling leaves, and pumpkins from Hobby Lobby and the leaves, flowers, and ribbon from Dollar Tree.  The scarecrow I purchased at Family Dollar.


All you need is some: wire cutters, scissors, and a hot glue gun.

Will be starting the Christmas wreathes soon. I can't wait to share!

Graveside Wreathes

Thanks to +Hobby Lobby and +Dollar Tree for some more great wreathes.

 

 I made these for some family members to put at their gravesides.



For about $15 a piece, I purchased the floral from Dollar Tree and the wreathes from Hobby Lobby.  It took me roughly 15 minutes to complete each of them.


All you need are some floral, wreathes, a hot glue gun, scissors, and wire cutters. I make sure to lay everything out first, and then go around and hot glue each piece in.

I wish my loved ones could see them.

Autumn Grapevine Swag

Thanks to +Hobby Lobby and +Dollar Tree, I was able to create another beautiful autumn décor piece for no more than $10.




I purchased the grapevine swag, sparkling leaves, and pumpkin from Hobby Lobby and the leaves, flowers, and ribbon from Dollar Tree.  These were merely the leftovers from an autumn wreathe I had made previously.  

This is a great option for preventing leftover craft items from going to waste.

All you need is some: wire cutters, scissors, and a hot glue gun.

I like to lay out everything first, and then gluing the items on takes no more than 10 minutes for a project this size.

This project was a gift for my church to use to add to their autumn décor. 

They loved it!
