My DIY Repurposed Spring Wreath

It was a typical March weekend, weather wise, in our area. The wind is still cold!

Early Saturday morning I got busy putting the Dollar Store flowers to use that I bought last week. I love how it turned out!
 

Here's how I did it.  I had an old Fall wreath that had definitely seen its better days.  Some of the plastic fruits on it had cracked and peeled.   So I undecorated it.

Underneath all that stuff was a nice wreath.

Using wire cutter pliers, I cut all the stems of flowers off the main thick plastic branch.

 

I stuck all the flowers, a couple of silk butterflies and the Dollar Store bird's nest on the wreath.  Then, I tucked a simple black and white checked ribbon bow on one side and it was finished.   Since this wreath will be used only indoors, I didn't need to worry about using a hot glue gun or anything. 

I like to hang a seasonal wreath on this door that is between the dining room and the living room. 

Although this one is definitely for spring,  it can stay out through most of the summer with just a little tweaking.  I might redo it in red, white and blue for July and then before you know it I'll be putting out Autumn things again!  I hate to admit that I was looking longingly at the fall decor in a magazine earlier today.  Yes, I'm crazy!  But, I am happy for spring to be coming.  Warm breezes, flip flops and all that kind of thing will be nice.
