The Interchangeable Wreath is Updated for Summer!


It's ready for the rest of summer!
See how easily I transformed  this interchangeable wreath!


Remember the adorable wreath our friend Amy created? Here are the directions: http://www.oursevendwarfs.com/2011/06/amys-post-awesome-interchangeable.html

I told her how beautiful her wreath was. I think I hinted.  Okay, maybe I begged.  Anyway, she made me one. YEAH!  I love it and can't wait to update it for every season.  It's so easy to transform.


I bought 9 flowers and 3 different scrap book papers.

I stacked the three papers together and traced the flowers on the paper. I cut them out.

I mod podged the paper on to the wooden flower.

 I used my scraper to smooth it out. I let them dry for about 30 minutes.

I put a coat of mod podge on top of the flower and I let it dry.

I then added another thick coat of Mod Podge since it's going to be outdoors and used for years to come.

I made 3 clusters of 3 flowers and hot glued them together.

I added velcro to the exsisting velcro on the wreath.

I peeled off the back of the velcro so it was sticky side up. This made attaching the clusters so much easier.

I then attached the clusters to the velcro.The velcro is stuck on the back of the clusters for easy removal.

The summer wreath is now displayed!
