Birthday Wreath

....look at me, I finished it... just in time for her birthday tomorrow.  It's already hanging on my front door so that everybody that drives by can see it, because I'm sure that everyone looks at my front door when they drive by my house, but they will when they see this beauty.

Lets start from the beginning.....  while at Home Depot buying spray paint for my Halloween tree we walked down the pluming aisle don't ask my why, but we did,  I noticed this foam stuff that they had, so I picked the little feller' up and thought to myself this will work, all I need to do is tape the ends together and its only .97 cents.....so wa-la, beets making another stop to the dollar store for a wreath, and you could get two wreaths out of it.
 Just cut the length that you need and tape the edges together.
Cover the wreath with fabric
I was lazy and taped the fabric on.
 
And I was even more lazy when it came to cutting strips of fabric....I already had these cut out, so i just used what I had.
.....here comes my favorite part, adding all the fab-u-lous 


a crown for the birthday girl with a paper flower
 
 some paper dollies
 

a #

and here it is all finished 
I used my cricut for the crown, #2, and celebrate.
and here's her cupcake birthday plate.  I glued a plate and a glass bowl that I turned upside down together with E-6000 glue.

Thanks for Looking!!

  1. That is so adorable!! You can probably switch out the number and picture each year. That's just too cute to only use once.

    Thanks for commenting on my blog. No, I don't live in Herriman. I live in Lehi near Saratoga.

    As a side note, I just noticed that we share a love of names. My only daughter is named Lillie as well. The same spelling and everything! Great minds think alike :)
