Story time! Home Depot was right down the street from my Target $1.00 bin shopping so I decided to pick up materials for our 2011 Christmas Wreath. Babe helped me picked out the one for this year from Pinterest. I originally wanted a full on solid greenery wreath, but came back to Steve's favorite. [Thanks Babe..I often change my mind ;)]
It was fun walking up and down the lumber section of Home Depot. I felt like a serious shopper/carpenter. The wreath called for 18" pieces, and I just happened to find 36" slats and had them cut down to size. I was tempted to buy thin molding pieces but .88c price was more appealing than $5.97 per molded slat. Finally, I bought my paint and went home to make the wreath!
Here are the steps:
- Glued the wood in the shape of a tic tac toe (right).
- Shaped the three separate tic tac toe pieces around a larger circled container!
- Spray paint any color or even use $2.00 sample cans from Home Depot/Lowes!
It was fun to make, here is the link to DIY
