everything echoes a new song

held my third monthly crafty night last night, and i wanted to share what we made: the cutest little spring wreaths! i was inspired by this one, this design*sponge tutorial and this adorable wreath by tiny happy. ok originally i was wanted to attempt these *amazing* wreaths (by the inspirational katie runnels) but i thought it might be a bit much to make in a few hours.

stephanie suggested we use ivy vines which unfortunately are rampant in portland but make great wreaths (and baskets!). everyone brought something to share (gorgeous blossoming apple and cherry boughs, pine cones, little mushrooms and birds, moss, flowers, ribbon, etc) and they all turned out so cute! (and yes, i know that top wreath is extremely cheesy. i'm ok with that).

a quick tutorial if you want to try it yourself: wrap the vine around itself twisting it around the original circle to hold itself down (you can use wire or floral tape to hold down the end if if wants to stick out) then use wire to attach pretty random greenery, etc. seriously so easy and addictive! you can see bree's freaking adorable tiny wreath here.

k, it's my honey's birthday today so we're off to celebrate. hope you're having a great week!
