Initial Wreath diy

this is so easy that it probably shouldn't even be a diy, but here it is anyway. ha!


what you'll need

wooden initial
white paint / paint brush
scrap fabric or ribbon to use as a hanger
a stem
a button
hot glue / gun

 1.
paint  yo letta.

i wanted a worn look so i  blotted off the excess paint  before i painted my letter
 in order to achieve a splotchy look.
i love how it turned out.

2.
tie on your scrap hanger.


3.
grab your stem  & glue it on.
i chose this stem on solely because of the tiny pine cones. 
aren't they cute?

4.
cover up the ugly part of your stem.
choose a button large enough.

i really loved the pearl button but it looked a little small,
so i went with the "diamond" button instead.
after all diamonds are a girls best friend.

5.
 hang it on your front door and admire your handy work.

Happy Monday!
