. . . Easy Halloween Wreath . . .

I always like to have a new wreath for each season and making them for Halloween is so much fun!  I was in a rush to get one done for the front door so I ran to the craft store and grabbed a black pine wreath and some Halloween Garland and made this one.  The wreath looked a little empty with just the garland so I brainstormed the little gauze ghosts and I was happy with how they turned out.

 :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
 • I grabbed a black pine wreath for a couple bucks and some Halloween Garland
• I used my Baker's Twine from The Twinery to tie my gauze ghosts

 • I had some gauze strips that I used to wrap around a cotton ball
• I gathered it tightly around the cotton ball and tied it with the orange and black Baker's Twine

 • I cut the gauze at a bit of an angle and spread it out so the gauze took on a "floating" look
• I attached the ghosts to the wreath

 • Add a fun bow and finish placing the ghosts and you are done!


  Simple and Fun!
