I am a sucker for bringing the outdoors inside, especially with Spring approaching. I originally made this back in the winter time but its perfect because now I can use it in Christmas or Spring and add a little Zest for either. Start by going on a walk. (gotta love when even a house project requires you to slow down for a minute.)




Clip off small branches that range in thickness but are all about 4 inches long...





I was super excited to find some mossy green branches!



This will look FAB with my future red door! Can you say door makeover??





Next up it’s time to get in the zen and wrap about 50% of your branches with yarn.



Since I know I will have a red door that I am playing with in my color scheme I decided to only use different shades of green.




This will make for an ombre green wreath.



Just a few later….






Now it’s time to make the actual wreath, I grabbed an embroidery hoop from the thrift store and started to glue the twigs onto the hoop.




Notice how I didn’t just work in a circle- I kind of skipped around to make sure all the twigs were spaced out and at the correct angle for the wreath.




After I had a good base of plain twigs I began to add the colored ones




All done!









I am thinking until I paint the door red I will add a red bow for pop, can”t wait!!
