I picked up some pieces from all my favorite haunts; Hobby Lobby, Family Dollar and Garden Ridge. I also included some dried hydrangeas from my garden. My inital budget was $20, but the actual cost was around $30...that container was larger than I thought.
Seeing the beautiful initial wreaths in blogland (I apologize, I don't have the specific links), I thought it would be cool to hang a big ole' W in front of my container. I kind of like how it fills in the void....plus it hides where paint is chipping off.
Okay, please excuse the green satin ribbon...that's all I had at the moment. I've since replaced it with brown ribbon.
So what do you think? Thanks for stopping!
Sincerely, Lisa
That turned out great! You should be proud of yourself! I like the "W" on the front, too.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! The bold 'W' is a great contrast with the arrangement :).

You did a fabulous job on this arrangement. I have never mastered the art of floral arrangement so I admire those that can pull this off.

You did a great job! I can't believe it was a first for you. The monogram is perfect :) I really like that the photos are clickable and I got to enlarge the photo to really see the project. Thanks for that :)

It is beautiful. I recently purchased hydrangeas and have no idea how to put them to use. I think I will eventually figure it out and hopefully it will be a success like this.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for your kind words! I look forward to visiting your blogs and finding more inspiration.
