Hey y'all! If you were to ask me this past Sunday if I would be sharing my Halloween wreath with y'all today I would've said no. The vision in my head wasn't working out in real life. So, I did what any frustrated girl would do. I poured myself some wine and started cleaning. Well, maybe not everyone would do the cleaning part but I needed something else to focus on.
Wanna see how everything turned out? Keep scrolling!
Here's what you'll need:
-18" foam wreath
-ribbon
-hot glue gun
-burlap and ribbon for bow
-felt spider web
-spray paint
-mdf wood numbers
-craft paint
-paint sponge
First, wrap your ribbon around the foam wreath. To start, I hot glued one end of the ribbon to the wreath and started wrapping. I used two full rolls of ribbon a little bit of a third.

This wreath also doubles as a cat bed.
After that, I painted the 3 and 1 with two coats of purple craft paint. This is the perfect Halloween purple...if that makes sense.
This is where it originally went all wrong.
Here it is after one coat of spray paint.
When I started assembling my wreath I realized I forgot to remove the remaining purple from the spider so I used some white craft paint to cover it. Since the craft paint was a lot more opaque than the spray paint I just applied some all over the wreath to make it look like it was meant to be like that.
