Boo Wreath

I came across this Halloween wreath by Linda from Craftaholics Anonymous a while back on Pinterest and really liked it. It was actually one of the projects for our little church group craft club last month, but I happened to be out of town that day and I’m just now getting around to finishing it.
Let me tell you - cutting burlap, not my favorite. It is super messy! I did appreciate the extra technique Linda gave, made it much easier to cut straight lines.
So as usually I put my own little spin on this project.
I used smaller letters – just because- no reason really. I painted them white and then I found some sparkly paint at Joann’s. I originally wanted to cover the letters in orange glitter, but due to some super cute crafts floating around the blogosphere involving orange glitter, they were all sold out.

Then I used the rest of the foam stickers and embellished it.

Oh yeah, and I used this handy tip for the wreath form. It cost less than a $1! Love it!

  1. Not liking the burlap look, but the rest is cute! I've always wondered what to do with foam stickers besides use them for kiddy crafts. And love the cheap wreath form!
