Greenery Wreath with Burlap Chevron Bow

So, I hate to say it but this freak winter weather has killed all of my outdoor plants. Well...they look dead at least. (Yes, I'm blaming it on the weather!) Nevertheless, I needed some greenery in my life. I LOVE the boxwood wreaths I've seen around, but decided to make my own instead. Hobby Lobby, here I come! This wreath was SO easy to make and came out simply adorable!
The first step is to gather your supplies. I used a round wood base, fake stands of greenery, and a white & burlap ribbon for the bow. Of course, music on in the background is definitely a must!
Attach your greenery to the wreath base (I used metal wire) and lastly, assemble your bow. For my bow, I made 2 different size loops and connected them together with the wire. Finally, I cut a new piece of ribbon to use for the tails. I attached the tails to the bow loops, and trimmed the ends in a "v" shape to finish them off.
Ta-Da! A beautiful wreath that's perfect for everyday!
xoxo, lauren
