Now that it's finally warmer I've been able to clean up the yard and pull out the dead plants. Last weekend we planted some flowers out front. Amazing how color can lift one's mood. I've been searching for a nice spring/summer wreath for our front door but had no luck finding one that didn't look so "fake". And the ones I've seen cost at least $40+, if I'm about to spend that much it's got to look it. One day while browsing the web I found an interesting idea using a large umbrella and flowers. LIGHTBULB! I had this umbrella that my sister had given to me years ago from her college fashion show. I've always wanted to do something with it and this was perfect!
Here's my version...
Add tulips, berry sprigs and tie a ribbon to finish it off. A fast and simple project!
The best thing about this was I used things I already had. This jump started my motivation to begin some spring projects like painting the kids' bathroom, living room, and organizing our garage. Let's see how fast I can get those done... Have a great weekend!
Do you have any spring projects planned?

I love making a wreath every season and usually switch up the flowers and such... This looks so adorable on you door!

Thank you Anna!
DeleteSuper cute and I love that it was using materials you already had. Isn't it great to re-use stuff? We planted a vegetable garden. Haven't seen anything pop up yet.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa, I love to re-use stuff and make it look new :) We will plant some veggies too!
DeleteLove it! What a great idea.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mandi! :)
DeleteI love that you didn't spend any money on this great project. I love re-purposing as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks, me too Joyce! Nothing like creating something old into something new :)
