Burlap Christmas Wreath

 I am so excited to show you my door decor for the Christmas season! I really like how it turned out. The white burlap contrasts so nicely with my red front door. Some of my girlfriends came over and we made these. I think it is so cool how different people can take one idea and each come out with something completely different.
 I was recently shown how to make these cute fabric flowers. I think they are just so cute. Ok, so I'm a sucker for any fabric flower!

    You make the most beautiful things! I'm also in love with this one and it matches the cranberry tassel perfectly. You create such beauty.

    You're 100% correct. it is a beautiful contrast. You really love that burlap, don't you? I would think it would be difficult to work with. Whatever -- your projects are turning our beautifully.

    I love the simplistic beauty of this wreath. the red flowers are the perfect touch...ok, so I accidentally deleted both of your entries. I added this one again, but it was before I actually clicked on the link. Let me know if I linked back to the wrong project. Lol...sorry, it's been one of "those" mornings for me:)
    Thanks for linking!! I loved your pillows too!!

    I love that wreath and am going to have to try making one for my home. Thanks for sharing and for the cutting burlap tip. It makes such a huge mess. I'm having a giveaway this week if you'd like to stop by.

    First I have to say I love the name of your blog! Your burlap wreath is so cute! As I was looking at it, and wondering if I should make one, I was cringing inside at the thought of the mess that burlap makes when you cut it. I am sooo happy you gave us the hint of spraying it down with water first!!

    I really like the idea of using white. My doors are so dark, green wreaths disappear on them. Thanks for the idea.

    Another brillant idea to use burlap. Burlap seems to be the vinegar of the design world - so many uses and so inexpensive! Have a great week.

    I LOVE this. I have been a little resistant to the burlap craze, but I MUST. MAKE. THIS. I hope one of your tutorials is on this. I mean, it looks pretty self explanatory, but it would help to know how much burlap to buy, any tips, and of course, how to make those darling flowers.

    Great job, I voted for you too!
