My summer decor needed an update and I was inspired by these cool chipboard wreaths that I saw at Hobby Lobby. I grabbed a large roll of twine, which I am sure most of use have, and Authentique’s Glory collection.

After gluing the end of the twine on the back side, start wrapping around the wreath. Be sure to overlap the twine in the center circle every couple of wraps. Doing this ensures you stay pretty even with the wrapping so that the inner edge isn’t completed before the outer edge is. Keep wrapping and overlapping until your wreath is complete. When finished wrapping, either tie of the twine on the back or glue it down.

For embellishing the wreath, you could chose whatever fits the holiday, your decor, or theme you are going for. Because I needed summer decor and since it is almost the 4th of July, I made mine 4th of July themed. Using my Silhouette, I cut out the 3-d stars, folded them and hot glued them on. Throw nr a few of the collection stickers and you are all set with some new home decor.

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you have a great week!
