Don't you just love this time of year?!?! Rain, flowers and trees blooming, new life is present all around us. When decorating your home this is a perfect time to bring the outside in. Starting at the front door before entering, well that's the beginning to a well dressed home.
I'm sharing my front door with you today. With all the rain that we've received here in Austin, I couldn't help but to play with what God is giving in the form of spring. So I decided the use of an umbrella is fitting for a spring wreath.
The other day I took a pit stop into our Goodwill, which I like to do occasionally. I always like to see what furniture and home decor might be found for me to rescue and make new again. I didn't find anything that day but I did find a black umbrella for 2.99. Well you can't beat that price! First score for the start to my project.
Second stop, Jo-Ann Craft store since they were having a 50% offer sale on their flowers. For this project I suggest you find your umbrella first so that you can coordinate your flower colors with it. When I walked in there I was looking for big tulips but all I found were small ones. Oh well I can work with that. Here's what I got.
8 easy steps to putting the arrangement together to fit into the umbrella
VOILA!! Your masterpiece is finished! Hope this brings a smile to you and your guests as they walk through the door.
