A wreath for my front door

I have been seeing beautifully decorated front doors with gorgeous wreaths for the Spring since early March. Unfortunately I was buried in snow back then and nothing seemed Spring like around here.
I know I am behind the ball game here, but finally last week I had some time to dedicate to my front door.
I went to Michaels and I got  a wreath for $16.00, I knew if I hunted around the thrift store for a while I could of done better price wise, but I didn't want to get to this project at the end of the summer!! :)
One of my favorite flowers are peonies. So I got a few of silk ones at Michaels as well. I guess being late in the season had some benefits as they were 60% off!! :)


 The process was very easy. I just inserted the flowers steams into the wreath, and tied them up on the back with some twine.




And there you have it. It was very easy!






 I added a couple of flags for the Holiday. 




I have no green thumb what so ever, so my ferns are looking very sad. I have been feeding and watering them religiously in hopes they will come back!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed my project! 

XOXO

  2. Your wreath is very pretty! I love homemade wreaths. Grapevine wreaths are the secret huh? I'd say you are ready for summer now. I love how pretty your house looks from the outside too. I have good luck with my ferns and I don't do anything to them other than watering them but mine are on a covered porch. Ferns prefer shade. If yours aren't thriving, they may be getting too much sun.
