So here's the final outcome of my version:
Early December |
Instead of using a wire hanger, like in the tutorial, I found a wire wreath round at Michaels for $2.99 + a 40% off coupon.
Then instead of single red beads, I found a 5ft fake red berry vine that was on sale (50% off $6.99)!
So I wrapped that around the inside of the wreath, then spray painted the clothespins green, attached a big red bow I got at the Dollar Store, and hung it with a red/white polka dot ribbon, that I had extra of from a previous tutu I made. It's my new fav:
late December! |
It turned out to be super flimsy & wasn't sturdy enough, especially for those bigger photo cards. So,I took this down off the wall, removed the 3 ribbons, and hung the lil sign in another place
i am LOVING this. i just went to joann's to stock up for my next project. i can't wait to see how they turn out and blog about them yipppeeee~
