This wreath idea was something I came up with after seeing all the fun and pretty spring and Easter wreaths on pinterest.  I have actually had this 4 inch roll of burlap ribbon that I got at Hobby Lobby a couple of months ago and it was time to use it for something.

This wreath is super simple and easy to make.  I think you can easily make one in 45 minutes or less.  Here is what you need to make one:

Supplies:

• 1 wired frame wreath whatever size you choose – mine was smaller as I wanted it for the back door that we go in and out of a lot
• 1 roll 4 inch wide burlap ribbon
• 1 package small plastic easter eggs
• 1 chenille stem to fasten bow
• glue gun

Step 1:  Wrap burlap around wire wreath, overlapping edges as you go – glue at back when get to where you began to secure

Step 2:  Glue plastic eggs onto burlap in desired areas – leaving an open area where the burlap overlaps for your bow

Step 3:  Make a bow with the burlap ribbon and secure to wreath with chenille stem – do this where burlap is glued to cover

Step 4:  Glue a plastic egg in middle of bow to hide chenille stem- you could glue more than one if you wanted to

That’s it – you are done – find a place to hang your new wreath and admire it!

Note:  For hanging purposes you may not want an egg in the top center – mine is hanging a little off center because I glued one there – but it doesn’t bother me.

Below you can see a better view on the door of the size and how small it is.  I didn’t want a really big wreath because we go in and out this door to our patio a lot.  Also, for the purpose of storing the wreath I think this will fit in my Easter storage box that goes in the attic.

I hope everyone is having a great start to the second week in April.
