BoHo Wreath . . . Let's Make One

*******

I have been admiring these 

BoHo dream-catcher wreaths on Pinterest 

and decided to make one of my own.

*******

I started my stretching a doily across the

 inside ring of an embroidery hoop.

I used a glue stick and clothes pins to security it.

When the glue was dry 10 minutes or so,

 I removed the clothes pins 

and put the outside ring over the smaller one.

Next I went through my stash of ribbons,

 fancy yarns, and string.

I cut long pieces being sure they were 

twice as long as I wanted them to be.

I looped them somewhere close to the center 

and pulled them through the bottom edge 

of the doily.

All you need to do here is loop them 

through themselves.

They will stay nicely in place.

Next, because I wanted a pretty silky flower,

I went to my fancy fabric basket.

And followed the directions at 

The Polka Dot Closet.

Carol was one of the first blogs 

that I fell head over heels

in love with years ago. 

Now, she doesn't blog, but instead runs one of

the most successful Vintage Flea Markets

in Orlando, Florida.

If you are planning a trip to 

Florida in June,

She'll be posting dates here:

Next I hot glued my finished 

flowers onto my wreath.

That's it!

A lot of pretty for an easy project. 

Here it is hanging in the Art Barn,

along with one of my paintings,

and a fabric chair that I painted

a couple of years ago.

Well, tell me is this wreath a project

that you would try making?
