PATRIOTIC DOOR WREATH


After looking long and hard for a fun Fourth of July themed wreath for our front door, and not finding something we liked, we decided to make our own.  We started with a customized grapevine wreath arrangement that was on clearance at Michael's for around $30. It had white flowers and greenery around the bottom and left side. Next, we picked up 3 red silk roses, 3 blue silk hydrangeas, and 2 American Flags.

To assemble it, we hot glued the flowers in place, intermixing the red and blue ones into the white flowers and greenery that were already on the wreath. Then we hot glued the two flags on, criss-crossing the dowels. Our final result is in the picture below. It was a quick and easy project that we did for around $45, still less expensive than a custom arrangement and also less than buying all of the materials separately.
