NUMBER 272 - IT'S FALL, DAMN IT!
Here in Florida it was a balmy 94' today. But, I am determined to enjoy Fall. I love everything about Fall, the leaves, the colors, the pumpkins, the sweaters...I could go on and on. So, today I bought out Bath & Body Works of all their Pumpkin Spice, Creamy Pumpkin, Caramel Covered Pumpkin, etc. candles and got to work on a new project. I am never happy with wreaths I find in stores, but I had seen one the other day online that I loved and it was great inspiration!
I cheated a little by buying the wreath at TJ Maxx. Then I headed to Michaels and picked up the wood letter. I wasn't completely pleased with the wreath, not enough orange. So, I figured I would paint the letter to add more spice! Martha Stewart offers a whole line of paints and I could not decide between the metallic or the glitter paint, so I bought both (they were only $1.99 anyway!).
I got to work painting the letter, nothing too hard about that. Let the metallic paint dry until tacky and then covered it with the glitter paint. I let all that dry, tied the letter onto the wreath with some brown satin ribbon and voila! Whole project, less than $25.00. A steal if I do say so myself!
