An Autumn Wreath

The leaves have fallen and snow is alredy flying in interior Alaska.  But despite that its still FALL and I refuse to think otherwise:~) Over the weekend I pulled out all of my fall decorations and realized how very few I have.  There have been so many fantastic fall/halloween wreaths coming through my RSS reader lately I couldn't help but be inspired to make one for myself:~)

I had originally wanted to make a black and orange halloween wreath, but I decided that it would be more fun to make something I can keep out for more than a month. The actual wreath was $2, the plaid ribbon was $1.50, and I used three different orange fat quarters which were $2 a piece.  I already had the brown ribbon and the burlap.  In hindsite I think the fabric would have been cheaper had I gotten it cut off the bolt since I only needed a very small amount, but it was faster to just grab the fat quarters.


It was a simple and quick project. I really love how it turned out.
