It's finally done! I finally completed the Halloween wreath that I've been working on for a couple weeks. Here it is.......
I got the idea from these crafty ladies:


After seeing these two wreaths, I just couldn't wait to make one for our house. So I got started right away. On The Picky Apple, she kept emphasizing needing more ribbon than you think. Boy was she right. I was very thankful for my bow template to help me make 4 1/2 inch cuts. We have an 18 inch wreath so I started out with 20 pieces of each ribbon. I then had to go back and make another 16 pieces. Yikes! I used the entire 5 yd. roll of ribbon!
As you can see, I also used 13 different kinds of ribbon. I LOVE decorating with pink, orange and black for Halloween. I bet you also couldn't tell that I LOVE polka dots.
Go check out one of the blogs listed above. They offer great tutorials about their wreaths.
