DIY Blue and Pink Wreath – Spring to Summer

Hello friends! Today I’m sharing a spring wreath that can easily transition into the upcoming summer days.

I’m kind of at that time of year where I’m still enjoying spring, but I’m starting to also think about summer and all the pretty things that come with that warm, super sunny season.

Are you still working on spring decorations? Have you moved on to summer yet? Well, either way I hope this spring to summer wreath inspires you and gets those creative wheels rolling in your head as you come up with your own spring (and/or) summer decor projects!

Let’s get to it!

DIY Blue and Pink Wreath – Spring to Summer

The main supplies that I will be using for my wreath are:

A styrofoam wreath base

Blue tulle that I’ve had for years

Burlap ribbon from the Dollar Tree

An old kitchen towel

Pink faux flowers that I pulled off of a garland I picked up at my local dollar store

Greenery that I’ve also had forever

I started by cutting my kitchen towel into three long pieces.

Once I cut my fabric, I started wrapping each piece around my styrofoam wreath frame and hot glued the fabric onto the frame as I went.

Now I’m taking my blue tulle and burlap ribbon to make a simple bow.

First I cut a long strand of the tulle and then a couple of strands of the burlap.

(By this point I stopped working on my wreath and started up again later that evening, hence why the background is different for the next two photos 🙂

For my bow, I layered the tulle and longest piece of burlap together and secured them with a small piece of pipe cleaner.

Then I wrapped the shortest piece of burlap around the pipe cleaner and secured it in place. I used sticky dots to keep it in place but you can also use hot glue for this.

Now I’m taking a wire cutter to cut my bunch of greenery into smaller pieces.

So it may look like everything is hot glued in place in the next photo but nothing is actually glued on yet.

I wanted to get a good idea where to put my flowers and bow so I mapped everything out first, placing my greenery, bow and pink flowers on the base and moving them around to get them to look how I wanted before actually gluing them on.

Once I knew where I wanted my bow and flowers, I took a picture with my phone and used that as my guide once I took everything off to start hot gluing.

I started by hot gluing the greenery first, then I hot glued on my bow over the greenery and lastly I hot glued all the pink flowers.

To hang my wreath I took a long piece of my blue tulle, tied it on either side of the top of the wreath…

And this wreath is done!

Sending happy, safe, and healthy vibes your way. May God bless you and your family today and every beautiful day to come!

Yellow and Peach Faux Flower Spring Arrangement

Yellow and peach…

I love yellow for almost any season, but peach is kind of a new one for me when it comes to spring decorating. I usually love pinks, yellows, and greens for spring, but this year peach and yellow flowers turned out to be a beautiful combination that worked great for this arrangement.

It’s a bright color combination, perfect for spring, but the soft peach also gives everything almost a delicate touch and even tones down a bit of the intense color that yellow can sometimes give off.

What colors do you like for spring? Do you gravitate towards traditional pastels, bright colors, or do you just love them all?

Well, no matter what colors you love for spring, I hope you enjoy this yellow and peach faux flower spring arrangement.

Let’s go…

Yellow and Peach Faux Flower Spring Arrangement

The flowers that I will be using for my arrangement are faux yellow billy buttons, peach roses and yellow tulips.

I’ve had these flowers for years, but as for where I purchased them the billy buttons were at Walmart, roses from my local dollar store and the tulips came from the Dollar Tree.

For my “vase” I’m using an old hand sanitizer container.

(I have a bunch of real vases that I can use for this but I’m kind of obsessed with making use of recycled containers. It’s a daily struggle trying to keep myself from washing out everything that ends up in our recycling bin)

I also used sisal twine that I picked up at the dollar store.

If you are not familiar with this type of ribbon it looks a lot like twine but its much stronger and stiffer so it takes more effort to create a bow with this type of ribbon but I really like the rustic look that it gives crafting projects.

Lastly, scissors and pliers.

My tulips were looking a bit feathered around the edges so before starting my arrangement I cleaned them up with my scissor. If you are using new flowers you probably don’t have to do this but I’ve had these tulips for a few years now so they were really in need of a little trimming.

This arrangement came together very quickly and easily.

I started by tying two strands of the sisal ribbon to my container to give it a double bow look. FYI: this ribbon can sometimes be a little messy to work with so you may want to place some paper underneath your work while you are cutting and knotting the ribbon, otherwise you’ll have pieces of sisal thread everywhere.

As for the flowers, use your pliers to cut the stems down to fit your vase or container if needed.

Once my faux flowers were ready I placed my billy button stem in first …

then all of my three tulips went down into the left of that.

Then two roses to the right…

as well as one more rose towards the back.

Once all the flowers were in I started moving things around a bit and flaring out a few of my tulip petals to get everything looking the way I wanted and that’s it my friends.

This simple spring arrangement is done and ready to go……to my table of course 🙂

Sending happy, safe, and healthy vibes your way. May God bless you and your family today and every beautiful day to come!
