It was such a fun girls/craft day! We spent too much time in Hobby Lobby, ate lunch, and crafted until we were ready to pull our hair out ;) I saw the idea on pinterest to buy some foam tubing (in the pipe section of Lowe's/Home Depot) for a buck and we got 2 wreaths out of 1 foam tube... I'm never buying a foam wreath again! We used floral wire to secure the mesh (pretty sure tulle would be much easier to work with!) after we gathered and bunched it to look fluffy. For the finishing touches I stuck in a few decorations and hoped it looks good :) Crafting can be hard work sometimes.. haha!
