I've been on a major wreath kick lately. I made a mummy wreath for Halloween, monogrammed wreaths for myself and my mom (post of that to come!), and yesterday I finished up a wreath for one of my lifelong BFFs. Baby #2, a girl, will be arriving Monday!
I used baby pink feather boas (thank you, Hobby Lobby) to wrap around the majority of the wreath.
I got an unfinished, curly-script 'B' and painted it hot pink. Then I did two thin coats of Mod Podge silver shimmer, and two thin coats of varnish just to give it a nice finish. It was far too matte for my taste without it.
Finally, to finish it off, I looped black and white damask print grosgrain around it and tied a bow to create a hanging 'loop'. I absolutely love the way it turned out! I hope Casie and Baby Brooklyn will love it!
that is so cute ! Love it! The boa was a great idea. I love all the pink fluff!
ReplyDeleteBefore I had my daughter I thought I'd be anti-pink, but turns out I love pink and purple for her! The girlier the better!
