Curly Ribbon Wreath

 Crazy cute and super easy to make!  This came from Embellished Bayou and I think it's one of the most clever ideas I've seen in awhile!

1. Use a round foam wreath (spray paint in a coordinating color if you're going to put it on a glass door since you will see the back) and pre-made bows that are made of curling ribbon.
2. Staple on the curling ribbon bows by layering 2 at a time.  So, staple one to the wreath and then put another top of it - just rotate it a bit so they criss-cross.  This wreath used 7 packs of three ribbons, but I'm not sure of the wreath size (maybe 14" or so). 
3. The staples won't really hold it so you're going to have to add a bit of hot glue with a glue gun.
4. Hang with a ribbon and embellish for the season.  You could add a little Happy Birthday tag, a reindeer for Christmas, Easter eggs, glittered hearts... anything!  

 

The modern Christmas wreath

Looking to step up the Christmas wreath this year to something smart, modern and just a little different?  Here's a little inspiration.... I especially like the idea of hanging something grand over the dining room table.  If you try it, send me a picture!
