Welcome!

This little blog started on our wedding website, which kept family and friends up to date on the planning and details. Of course this is where we will provide all of the recaps of the wedding and everything after. We look forward to keeping family and friends up to date on our lives here in Texas and all of the adventures we share as newlyweds!

Spirit Wreath DIY

As promised a quick and simple DIY how to for my cute little “Spirit Wreath”

Materials:

16 to 18 inch Styrofoam wreath form

Approx 12-18 spools of 3 yard 1.5 inch ribbon

Wooden Letters

Hot Glue gun and glue

Paint (colors of choice)

This project is super simple! I started by cutting all of my ribbon into 6-7 inch strips

Then take each strip and wrap around the wreath form and knot.

* Make sure the cat doesn't steal your ribbon--notice how Nala is looking at it*

Continue around the wreath form until the wreath is full.

Make sure that all of the knots are lined up on the same side to create a nice even patter.

Paint your college letters or you could also do this with your house number.

Once the letters/numbers are dry use hot glue to stick on your wreath.

Use one large piece of ribbon to create a loop and hot glue to the back of the wreath form so that you can use it to hang.

Project complete!!
