Christmas Monogram Wreath

I had the idea for this wreath because I wanted to add  some sparkle to a mirror that is in my entry foyer.  I started by purchasing a  wreath and garland at Michael’s.

I attached the garland to the wreath with floral wire.  I used my Cricut to make a “F” stencil and traced it on a piece of luan board.  Then I cut out the “F” using my skrol saw.

I painted the “F” with satin white Rust-oleum spray paint.

It is painted and ready for the wire, mod podge and glitter.

I attached floral wire to the back of the “F” so I could attach it to my wreath. 

002

I covered the “F” with Mod Podge and added silver glitter to give the “F” sparkle.

And here it is all sparkly that adds the bling I was looking for.

It’s beautiful at night!

I also made the  pillow in the chair.   I used white felt and snowflake sheer material to make a pillow cover for an old pillow I had.  I made a bow and tied it around the pillow.    That also adds the sparkle that I was looking for in the entry way. 

Hope you enjoyed and have a wonderful day.
