First post and craft

Well, I'm new to this whole blogging thing, but I thought I'd give it a try.  I really enjoy "making stuff", whatever it may be.  I hope this blog will help me organize my ideas and also inspire others to get a little crafty as well.  My thought is to update with a new craft or idea weekly.  Hopefully I'll stay on top of things. 

So, here is my first idea; a wreath.I've been a little obsessed lately with these things.  This is the first ribbon wreath I've made, and since this one, I've made several more (they get easier and quicker to make every time). 

Things you will need for this project:
wire wreath or a wire coat hanger (thats what I used... because it's... FREE)
LOTS of ribbon (I waited to get it 50% off at Hobby Lobby)
A wooden letter and paint (if you wish to personalize it)
Thats it!!!

All you do is:
Cut ribbon into about 6 inch strips and tie them onto the wire... Thats all, SUPER EASY!!!

Here it is about half way finished.



And... here is the finished product!




Thats it... SUPER easy!  Hope you will try it out soon!
