I think I should be outlawed from going to Michaels. Every time I go I buy something I definitely don’t need. About a month ago I stumbled upon these adorable grapes and I just couldn’t pass them by.
This wreath was fairly simple to make, but not without error.
I started with two large grapes, a pack of small grapes and a grapevine wreath.
I started this project with the intention of hot gluing all of the pieces to the wreath. Plastic + Wood = perfect, right? Nope. For some reason, the hot glue and the grapes didn’t mix, so they all fell off. Oops.
Instead, I attached the grapes with wire. To do so, I wove the wire through the grapes and the vine, then twisted it around the back so it was secure.
I did this for each of the grapes until everything was secure. I think my brain wasn’t working because I’d lay out the pattern for my grapes, then flip over the wreath and they’d all fall off. Thankfully, it wasn’t complicated (obviously) and I was able to place them all where I wanted each time I made that mistake (at least 3 times).
Even with the small snags, this was a very easy-to-make wreath.
I know what will be gracing my front door once winter is over!
Thanks for stopping by. Check back tomorrow for my DIY GIFT GUIDE 🙂 See ya then!
