Monogram Fall Wreath

With the cooler weather, I am getting into the Fall season.  I spent the last day or two getting our house into the harvest feeling.  When you enter our home there is no doubt what time of year it is.  I am a little partial to Fall decorations, I am not sure if it is the bright orange, amber, and gold colors or the shape of a pumpkins and sunflowers that I fancy.  But I do like Autumn.  I was inspired by a blog that I saw some time ago with a wreath that featured a large letter in the middle and thought that I would make one for our door for Fall.

Here are the supplies that I used.  I purchased them all at JoAnn Fabrics for 50% off!

This is what the "S" looked like as I painted a nice chocolate brown.

I am no floral designer I just cut the flower stems apart and just start hot gluing things down.  I have to say, I am never sure when I am finished and just try to remember that less is more thing.

Here is a close up of the "S".  Sorry the picture is not the greatest.  After painting it brown I used a metallic gold paint pen and just kind of doodled on it.  If you have ever been with me when I am taking notes of any kind this doodling is all over my notes. Then I sealed it with clear spray.
