Fall Owl Wreath

I am so stinking excited about how this turned out!

By far - my favorite project so far.

Okay - to make this Fall Owl Wreath you will need:

Medium sized round wreath - mine was about 10" accross

4 Strips of fabric - 1.5" x 44" (or the width of a bolt) It took most of a quarter yard.

Hot Glue

A Stick

Cutouts from Silhouette or Stickers/cut outs from the craft store

Step One: Wrap your fabric around your wreath and secure with hot glue at the end of each piece. You don't need to glue as you go, just wrap tightly.

 

 

Here we are all wrapped up - seriously, the possibilities are endless...

  

Step Two: Add you stick across the wreath towards the bottom. Jax (my 4 year old) brought this stick home with him from my office when he stayed home from school because he was sick.

Step Three: Get your extras together. These are the designs I cut out with my Silhouette Cameo. Owls and Flags are both really popular right now, so I'm sure you could find something similar at your local craft store.

 

Step Four: Use hot glue to secure your owl's and flags to your stick and wreath! You are all done!

 

I also made this little decoration with the extra flags and sticks.

 

Hope you guys enjoyed today's craft and I hope you'll come back next week to visit! 

"BOO"

 

I absolutely love how this turned out! It was a very inexpensive project and just like the fabric pumpkins, didn't take much time.

 

I have a Silhouette Cameo that cuts everything out for me - but you could get the same end result with purchased items. OR you could find a friend that has a Silhouette and bum off of them.

 

Here is what you will need:

 

Letters for your word (BOO, EEK, etc) - Mine measured 8" wide and 10" tall. My letters are cut out of card stock that I didn't really like and then spray painted with chalkboard paint - cuz its what I had. You could purchase letters, cut letters out of black cardstock, or use wooden letters (which would probably do better if you wanted to use them for multiple years)

 

Stickers or halloween shapes cut from Vinyl. You might notice that the window to the left is decorated with the vinyl I didnt use :)

 

Duct Tape - for hanging - I'm fancy like that

 

 

 

Here is what my shapes looked like cut out and the negative space (extra vinyl) removed.

 

 

For the polka dots and bats, I let some of them overhang and then trimmed them up with an exacto knife.

 

 

And here she is! Like I said - I just love love how this turned out! I have the letters for EEK too - so I may do another version for somewhere in the house...

 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
