New wreath for the new year

Rob gets nervous when I have an extended amount of time off work because I tend to raid Hobby Lobby, thrift stores, Target, etc. in the pursuit of new craft ideas.  Well, my latest project was super cheap and fairly easy to make- it was just time-consuming and required lots of hot glue.  I didn't take pictures of the steps along the way because I was afraid it wouldn't turn out like I wanted, so here is a picture of the final product:

If you'd like to make your own you will need:

-hot glue gun

-burlap (I used two different colors)

-card stock or construction paper

-grapevine wreath

-decorative silver berry things (no idea what these are really called)

All of these items can be bought at Hobby Lobby, but check your local thrift store for a grapevine wreath first- I bought mine for $1!  I used my friend's tutorial on how to make burlap rosettes.  (Thanks, Anna!  It worked really well!) I made several rosettes- hot gluing as I circled the burlap around the knot.  Then I glued the rosettes on the wreath after I cut the extra card stock from around them.  Next I just stuck the "silver berry things" into the wreath so that they slid behind the rosettes. I didn't glue them in so that I could switch them out when the seasons change.  I bought the silver berries at Hobby Lobby in the Christmas section after Christmas so they were 66% off, so I think I bought four bunches of them for a total of $1.50.  So there is the finished wreath!  Next project...painting the front door red. :)
