Instead of big bows, lots of flowers and so on.. I went with simple.
I took a regular grapevine wreath, some dark blue/white gingham fabric, a few sunflowers, and a scarecrow plant pick...
I cut the fabric into 2 inch wide (give or take) strips. (3 to wrap the wreath & one for the bow)
Then I tied the ends together so it would be long enough to use to wrap the entire wreath.
Then I simply took the fabric strip and wrapped it around. (cutting off the tied ends and tucking them under to hide them)
Next I just tucked in the scarecrow pick and flowers...
Then I tied the last strip of fabric around the top of the wreath and just made a simple bow.
I had everything on hand, so this Oh So Simple wreath cost me nothing...
I had thought about adding more flowers, greenery, some burlap ribbon wrapped around in between the fabric sections, and so on... but I decided that I actually like the simplicity of it like this.
Yep, sometimes simple is good. :0)
