{Tulle Wreath}

This was a wreath I made for Halloween, but you could customize it for any color scheme just by using different colored tulle and ribbon. It's extremely inexpensive, and can be done in just minutes!

Supplies needed:
-- 6" wide tulle in the color of your choice {P.S. I LOVE LOVE LOVE www.tullesource.com. I have every color in the 6" wide. So versatile!}
-- Your choice of ribbon to hang- it can be any width, but obviously the wider it is, the more visible it is.
-- Wreath form- I found this "hay wrapped in plastic" one at Michael's for cheap. The green styrofoam ones also work, they were just more expensive. None of the wreath form will show at all, so it doesn't matter what it looks like! I used an 8" wreath, but you can make your wreath bigger or smaller!
-Scissors and ruler

Now, making this is dead easy and quick. The difficult part is trying to explain the knot you use (it's the same kind I use for tutus...)!!

First, cut your tulle in the length you would like. Remember that a couple inches will be taken up in the knot around the wreath itself, so if you cut it 10", the amount of tulle sticking out will NOT be 5". Just experiment until you find the look and length you like.

And now for the knot. I don't know if this knot has a name (anyone? anyone?). What you will do is fold your length of tulle in half. Then put your wreath right on top of the tulle. Take the folded end and open it up, and take the cut ends together and pull them OVER the wreath and through the folded loop to secure the wreath in a "loop" of tulle. Did that make any sense at all?

Continue to tie tulle next to each other around the wreath. Make sure to do them close enough that you cover any visible "under-wreath."

Pull your ribbon through the middle of the wreath and cut the ends at the length you like. Hang from anywhere!!

You can also add embellishments to the tulle, such as rhinestones, flowers, tiny easter eggs...the possibilities are endless, and can be customized to any home or for any holiday!
