This Great Fall Life: Wreath #2

Like many others, I have recently found a new love in the form of pinterest.  And like many others, have recently pinned this burlap bubble wreath and subsequently created it for my front door.  Actually, I created it in huge form for the centerpiece of my dining room wall, and subsequently promoted it to front door and moved this masterpiece to my dining room :)

What I love about this project, is that it's modifi-able (is that a word?) for the seasons.  Since I'm in love with it, I've given a lot of thought to the various ribbons that will accompany it throughout the year, as soon as I'm over the fact that I spent seventeen dollars inadvertently on the 2 yards of brown ribbon that I bought to hang it from and have the heart to switch it out.  As a side note, that's a little ridiculous.  I didn't think it'd be more than a dollar or so per yard and after it was cut she rung me up for seventeen dollars...are you trippin'?

The project itself was simple, but extremely time consuming after making the management decision to buy the biggest foam wreath that Hobby Lobby had to offer.  It took more like 2 1/2 yards of burlap contrary to the tutorial and more like 200-250 pins.  I measured all of my squares 4x4 for the sake of consistency in the "bubbles" which I think is a good idea, and this was really helpful in my quest to cut and measure straight.  I used it for multiple burlap crafts following this one.  Anyway, here's a few pics, but the tutorial is pretty straight forward.

Burlap is my new favorite material.  Happy Fall!
