My Autumn Wreath

I made this wreath for autumn to hang on my door. I love it and it was super, super, easy!

First, I bought a styrofoam wreath at my local craft store. I then bought these glass stones from the craft store as well. They are pictured below. I should have gotten two bags because I ran out and had to go back.
This is a picture of what I had left from the second bag. 
I painted the styrofoam wreath a brown color so what did not get covered would not show. I then started hot gluing the stones all over the wreath. By the way be careful the glue can get hot! After I finished gluing the stones on I made a ribbon for the front and  volia'! 
Hope you enjoy till next time enjoy your day and God Bless!

Today my husband and I have been married 17 years! It is so hard to believe. I am also waiting on my order of elderberries to come in to make elderberry syrup for the upcoming cold and flu season. As soon as I get them in I will post a tutorial on how to make this simple syrup to help you during the cold and flu season! I will also post some simple christmas presents I just made that are great and useful! Till then enjoy your day and God Bless! ;)
