{ Easter Wreath }


 I wanted an Easter wreath that was simple this year. I have three doors to decorate every few months and for the last few Easters, I have used egg wreaths. Pastel  eggs and grapevine wreaths. They are beautiful, but this year I wanted a change. I found these carrot bunches at Pier 1 Imports and new that I wanted to make a wreath with them when I saw them. I used three green wreath forms that I find at the dollar store, and covered each with burlap. I pinned the burlap in place and then pinned the carrot bunches to each wreath with florist pins. I love the way they turned out. So  simple. And the best part is that I can change out the decorations each season and/or holiday!

  2. That's really cute, especially the carrots. So many spring/Easter wreaths are pastel with eggs. This is very unique! Thanks for sharing on Handmade Tuesdays.

  9. Oh my. This really is a clean/simple look, but I LOVE it!! Those striped carrots are perfect...but even if you didn't have Pier1, they would be a pretty easy project to replicate. I keep coming back to carrots, carrots, carrots for decor this spring : )
