I recycled the grapevine wreath and white pom poms from my Valentine Pom Pom wreath. Since the pom poms were tied on with string, it made for quick removal. (No worries - all pom poms escaped unharmed!) I was a little more committed to this wreath so I busted out the hot glue...
I mod podged some paper mache eggs with strips of fabric in gorgeous shades of blue and yellow. These are from Heather Bailey's Nicey Jane collection and Sandi Henderson's Meadowsweet.
I then cut strips from some aqua Michael Miller knit and ruffled them with my sewing machine. I hot glued the ruffles to the bare paper mache egg - I wanted it to look like a fancy sugar egg. It's pretty close, albeit not edible...
Then I made some ric rac roses to match... these are super easy and so cute. (I put the blue one on a clip so I can recycle it as a hair clippie for my girls.)
Hello there little rosebud.;)
An hour or so and a few hot glue burns later...
It just so happens that is goes remarkably well with my new turquoise door... not that I planned that or anything *wink*.
Welcome Spring, come on in!
Very cute! I'm loving the coordinating turquoise door! Soo cute!
