{Guest Post} Christmas Frame Wreath

Hi there SHINDIG readers!It's Kristyn, from Lil' Luna!Wanted to share with you this Christmas Frame Wreath Tutorial that I hope you LOVE!
One thing you may find all over my blog is WREATHS.I'm kinda addicted!
I DID NOT like my Christmas Wreath from last year so I decided to make a new one this year.I loved my Valentine's Wreath so much that I decided to do something similar for Christmas.

Do you like it??I totally copied my own creation from earlier this year and then also found the inspiration for the Tree HERE {so cute!}
If you would like to make one too, here is what you'll need....
SUPPLIES:-Berry Wreath {I always get mine after Christmas when they are 75% off}-8x10 Frame {Got mine for. .50 at Goodwill}-Spray Paint-Sand Paper-Christmas Song Printable-Scrapbook Paper {of various colors}-Hot Glue-Ribbon

DIRECTIONS:1. Begin by spray painting your frame and then letting it dry. Distress when you are done if you like that look.

2. Print out your Christmas Song Printable {from Altered Artifacts} to 8x10 size. Cut off excess and set aside.



3. You will then want to make your tree. To do this I made 5 two-inch strips of varying lengths. I made mine 12 inches, 10.5 inches, 9 inches, 7.5 inches and 5 inches long. I zig-zagged them back and forth and I also cut along the strip with my scalloped scissors for an added touch. Then I hot glued them to my sheet music starting with the bottom strip first. 



4. Continue gluing strips on to the sheet music. At the top you will add your star. I cut mine out of some glitter paper and added it to the top.

5. From there, I stuck the page into my spray painted 8x10 and then added some ribbon to the back. I hung my wreath on the hook and then tied the ribbon from the frame around the hook so the frame laid on top. 

SUPER EASY AND CUTE!I {heart} it!
I hope you like it too!!Be sure to come on over to Lil' Luna to say hi!
ENJOY!
