Pinspired and Rewired

Since I love finding craft ideas on pinterest I wanted to participate in the Pinspired and rewired contest from the blogs over at Southern Lovely, Family Ever After, Ginger Snap Crafts, and The Gunny Sack

 

This was my inspiration! I think this is super cute and I'm always looking for a wreath that is skinny because there's not too much space between the door and the storm door.

Yellow Mums Sunshine Wreath

The sunshine wreath from Yellow Mums.  I think it's really cute and plus I have alot of sticks outside of my house.  So I went to finding sticks and came back inside with this

A big back of sticks.  While I was out there I thought maybe there's a way I could use some of the stupid gum balls that are covering the entire yard.  If you don't have gum trees consider yourself lucky!  These gums balls are the devil!  What I decided to do with them was to paint them and cover them in glitter and some how place those on the wreath instead of the clothe rosettes on the original wreath.  I also personalized the wreath with a P monogram.  

Here's my box of gum balls and my P waiting for paint and glitter! 

This is the base of my wreath I used a hot glue gun to glue the sticks around a piece of foam board.  I found this to be pretty difficult since I had outs of spaces that were empty.  

Here's the final product!  I'm really happy with how it turned out I think it's pretty cute!
