I used dark and light silver and white beads on this one.......
It turned out cute....now on to the earrings that match.
Below is a wreath that I came across while looking at different blogs over the weekend. I thought this was such a CHIC idea..Love it!! Thanks Jessica for sharing. Make sure to go over and check out Jessica's Blog @ Craftily Ever After!!
LACE HALLOWEEN WREATH
I've been excited to see so many cute fall/Halloween wreaths all over blogland, so it was just a matter of time until I created my own.
When I visited my grandmother back east this spring she was trying to get my mom to take her old black lace jacket.
She didn't want to throw it away but she no longer wanted it because sun-damage had caused discoloration in some areas.
My mom didn't want it either so she convinced me to take it for the fabric. It's been sitting in my stash ever since. This week though, I paired it with a 10" green wreath-form and two spools of satin ribbon from the dollar store.
Three dollars later, I had a festive Halloween wreath!
For the flower, I cut a bunch of 2 1/2 inch strips of ribbon for the petals and hot-glued the corners and tops back on themselves. I put a dot of hot glue in the centers of the ribbons and pinched them into a pleat before overlapping and adhering them onto a piece of felt. I made the center out of ribbon the way I would make a fabric rolled rose.
Halloween's coming a bit early at our house this year!
