DIY Summer Wreath

Looking for a summer project that's easy and inexpensive? You're at the right place. This wreath is perfect for summer, and you could even keep it up through all of the other seasons too. Keep reading to find out how to make it.



Materials:
  • Tree branch wreath (Not sure what it's officially called)
  • Floral bush (I found some at a dollar store)
  • Burlap bow (6 in.)
  • 3/8 in. ribbon
Instructions:
  1. Take your floral bush and cut it so that the flowers aren't all attached to one stem. Cut off all of the main stems so that they are separate. 
  2. Take the larger flowers and push the floral wire in and around the twigs so that it is secure, but not sticking out in the upper left part of the wreath. Make about 3 big flowers side by side.
  3. Take one stem of smaller flowers and put them on each side of the three larger flowers.
  4. Tie a normal bow in the burlap without cutting it first to see how big you want the bow. After you know how long to make your burlap, cut it and tie into bow.
  5. Place bow on lower right side of the wreath.
  6. Cut ribbon into about three 2 in. segments.
  7. Take the cut ribbon through the holes in the backside of the burlap bow and secure in a knot to the wreath. Secure the ribbon on both ears of the bow as well as the middle.


That's all! It's probably the easiest wreath you'll ever make, and it's perfect for summer!
