DIY Flocked Wreath

I am totally loving the look of all of these flocked Christmas trees and wreaths this year!  So, I decided to create flocked wreath for my front door.

I went to Hobby Lobby to buy the supplies that I needed for the wreath, including the flock spray.  I already had the plaid ribbon that I used for the bow, seen in my mirror post here.

This is the greenery wreath that I used.  I got it at Hobby Lobby, for only $5!

Here is the snow/flock spray that I used.  It was only $2.50 after the 50% off all of the Christmas items at Hobby Lobby.

I took the wreath outside to spray it and held the sprayer closer and farther away as I moved across the entire wreath.  I didn't want the wreath to be completely white.  I just wanted it to look like it had a dusting of snow on it.  

Here's what it looked like after I finished spraying it.

When I finished spraying the wreath, I let it dry for about 40 minutes.  It will still come off all over everything, so be careful!  

Then, I decided to make another bow, like the one I created for my dining room.  

Check out this blog post for the video that I used to make the bow.

Here's how the wreath looked before I hung it on my front door.

Here's the finished product.  I love how it turned out!  I can't wait to start flocking other Christmas projects now!  

Friday Favorites 08.12.16

Happy Friday y'all!   Here are a few things that caught my eye and made me swoon throughout this past week.

1.  Lettuce - Ware  

I've actually been collecting pieces of this for a few years now and I was SUPER excited that Veranda Magazine shared a post this week about how it's making a come back. (Yay!)  Evidently it's going for a pretty penny these days, if you find the old stuff!

2.  Marley Lilly Pull Over

I subscribe to the Marley Lilly e-mails and fell in love with this gray pull over that was in one of the emails this week!  It showed you multiple ways to wear this wardrobe staple.  I think I will definitely have to purchase one of these soon.   It's pretty awesome that the headquarters is located in my hometown too!  :)

3.  Palmetto Bluff Home in Southern Living

This house is amazing!  Looking through every picture of this home makes me swoon!  

4.  Havaianas 

Who else has been watching the Olympics like crazy?   During part of the coverage, they went to a local Havaianas store.   Then, that made me start wanting another pair...  I found these on their website and OMG!  They're gorgeous!  I'm totally loving this olive green color for fall and the stones on these are amazing too!

5.  Tarte - BB Tinted Treatment 12 Hour Primer

I have loved all of Tarte's make up that I have tried and this was no exception.  It gives coverage without being too cakey and I really feel like my skin just looks and feels better, even after I've taken it off!  I've always had issues with breakouts, so I was hesitant to try this.  However, I'm a fan!  

6.  Painter Designs Tassel Necklace

I might be just a smidge biased on this next one, but I love this green and coral tassel necklace that I made this week!  The green color reminds me of milk glass and I LOVE milk glass!  Check out my etsy shop @ https://www.etsy.com/shop/painterdesignsart
