Summertime Wreath - Guest Post...

I'm so excited to be helping out Diane of Vintage Zest...her projects have inspired me and I hope I can do the same with this SUPER SIMPLE Summertime Wreath made from supplies you probably have at home.

You will need:

• 12" Styrofoam Wreath (preferably the kind that doesn't flake off)

• Ribbon or Tulle

• 4 sheets of 12x12 Scrapbook Paper (I doubled one of my patterns but you could use 4 different patterns if you want).  I used CTMH's Jubilee Paper Packet, White Daisy Cardstock and Jubilee Complements for the "Summertime" sign.

• 1" push pens

• 3-D Foam Squares

Wrap Wreath with Ribbon or Tulle until all the Styrofoam is covered.

------------------------------------------------------

Cut scrapbook paper into shapes - I used stars and my Cricut Machine but you can hand-cut any shape you want.  I had one sheet of Scrapbook Paper cut into smaller stars for dimension. There are probably a total of 35 stars or so..

--------------------------------------------------

Start pinning one color stars onto wreath using 1" pins.

--------------------------------------------------

Pin another color/pattern of stars onto wreath overlapping slightly.  There should be a solid ring of stars at this point.  

-------------------------------------------------------

Adhere the rest of the stars onto the wreath using the 3-D Foam Squares and attach a sign or extra embellishments.

Here some close-ups so you can see the dimension of the stars...

Viola...a CUTE, SIMPLE wreath for any occasion!
