I love to decorate with burlap and when I found this great idea for a burlap wreath on Pinterest I was hooked! So after pinning it, I followed the link over to the Top This Top That blog, where I was pleasantly surprised at how easy this wreath is to make! Seriously, it was so simple and I only needed 3 items to make the wreath. Check it out for yourself here!
So I swung by Hobby Lobby and picked up a metal wreath form, burlap ribbon(found it in the floral dept too), and a little embellishment and I was on my way. I was able to start and finish it while the twins were napping last Saturday. So with a quiet house I started looping the burlap through the wire...
pulling and fluffing as I worked it top, miidle, & bottom. Once the wreath was finished I fluffed a little more. Then tied some bright summery flowers with twine and hung it on our front door.
It makes a great summer wreath, but it could work with any season with a few changes to your embellishments. I love it when I can make something that works all year round. Oh and be sure to check out the Top This Top That blog, she has lots of great inspiration and ideas for making your home beautiful.

Bringing my Boards to Life
Every time I look around Pinterest I find something I want to cook, buy, decorate, or make. Now I know I have more things pinned than what I have actually made or cooked. But recently I have done a couple things that I pinned on my boards...
Found this idea of using an over the door shoe organizer and I hung it on the inside of my pantry door. It has been a great in organizing art supplies and handy pantry items.
My second come to life pin was a Coffee filter wreath. I used foam tubing for the wreath part. The foam only cost .97 cents! So much better & cheaper than the white foam. Found the idea from a Pin that originated from The Penny Parlor blog's coffee filter wreath and then I found another great coffee filter wreath pin from The Little Brown House blog
Who knew a little foam tubing, hot glue, and some brown coffee filters could make this...
And I finished during a couple of the twins nap time!
