Cute Wreath

I have been wanting to make one of these wreaths for along time it was so easy
First I made a frame out of a wire hanger
then went to the scrap bag and started cutting away strips I really wanted it bright and sunny like our summer here in Georgia lol I separated them in same colors and the way I wanted them on the wreath
started tying

I think it turned out wonderful I love it
Best part it did not cost me one cent
love it
so go ahead and make one for every season :)
Whatcha think?

Happy Friday
