Mardi Gras Tree and 1st and 3rd Wreaths- Kathy Graybill

Kathy explains how she did her wreaths since she doesn’t have them on a blog:

• Mardi Gras Tree- Great place to hand all your fun Mardi Gras beads. Use gold, purple and green ornaments, too! Make a large bow tree topper!
• 1st wreath- Wrapped ribbon around straw wreath, made a large wreath bow and added decorations.
• 3rd wreath-Use a grapevine wreath and tie about eight 10″ pieces of ribbon, evenly spaced on the wreath. Take deco mesh (or tulle) and gather it at the top. Tie it at the first ribbon and give it a twist, leaving as much as you want in between the ties. Go around the entire wreath. I actually went around twice. The second time going back in the opposite direction. Then just glue on the decorations and make a large bow.
