How To Make Beautiful Wreaths
40 Handmade DIY Tutorials
I’m so pleased to be sharing a new book from talented wreath creator, Melissa Skidmore, with you today! Make sure to read until the end of the post for a chance to win a copy for yourself! I’ll be sharing some excerpts from the book that give you a peek at some of the lovely handmade creations she’s sharing tutorials for — I think she’s created something for every month, season and holiday throughout the year.
Melissa and I’ve been blogging friends for years, so I’m tickled to be sharing her beautifully laid out book with you! She is a passionate and talented wreath designer, and I’m so happy she’s sharing her talents with us all!
Melissa has included some everyday wreath ideas in her book for us with sweet, simple designs — like the Summer Fern Wreath and the Canning Ring Wreath.
There are rich and festive holiday wreath tutorials as well…
Like the Winter Floral Wreath — with white roses, eucalyptus, lamb’s ear and more.
The Fall Floral & Pumpkin Wreath graces the cover of her book.
While the Cinnamon, Pine Cone & Dried Orange Slice Wreath makes me want to do a natural, organic inspired holiday look. It’s so festive and makes me yearn for a simpler time.
I think you’d have to hide this Gumdrop Wreath from the little ones.
And maybe some big ones too.
The Christmas Tree Wreath, is an fabulous example of some of the unique wreath tutorials you’ll find in her book! They aren’t all traditional round numbers, and that makes them so extra special!
I want to make them all! And I feel like I actually could too!
Melissa shares complete project supply lists for every single wreath, as well as step-by-step photo instructions to help as you go along. The more complex, the more photos she shares!
You can kind Beautiful Wreaths at many popular book stores, as well as online [here].
