This is coming a bit late in the season, but definitely still worth sharing. I decided I could make autumn wreaths, on my own...I was right! I am not going to give a play-by-play on this one as I only have pictures of my final project. I will walk through my steps briefly.
1. First, I bought plain wood branch wreaths from a local decor store (WOW Furnishings in Jefferson above Real Deals). They were very well priced - 8 for the large, 5 for the smaller size.
2. I bought vase and centerpiece fillers in autumn colors. Many stores, like WOW, will have these in bunches for $4-10 depending on size and quality.
For this project, I did not need any additional tools. NONE. The branches are spaced so that is is very easy to intertwine the filler in with the branches.
Decorate with any color to match any season. Mine, are of course, autumn-themed.
Melissa, if you have any wild muscadines on your property, you can have Jim and I over and we will help you make vine wreaths of all different sizes for you to decorate.....saves even more money, and fun to make! :) Patti
