I really want to share my coffee filter wreath even though I am so sleepy!
I was up WAY too late and woke-up WAY too early.
So, I'm going to pop up some pictures and share the how-to later.
(if you still want a "how-to" after you see it!)
Even though I used almost ALL my hubbies coffee filters in the process!
Whoops ;)
Whoops ;)
He was wondering if I could save him one or two?
No worries, I ended up going to buy more.
He has caffine.
This is my friend Debbie's wreath!
Isn't it so cute with the red & white checked ribbon?

Mine looks like it's drunk.
Okay, maybe just tipsy.
Oh. Well.
... like my sister always says
"It is what it is".
I made it, so that makes me it's momma right?
And I love it.
(definitely a wee bit more before I peeked at Pinterest)
It just has a few bits & wobbles sticking out I didn't notice until I took the pictures.
Hmm... must be a theme?
That's what happens when I have my picture taken.
{because it couldn't be the cookies...}
You know how I'm on a big flower kick?
Well, I managed to pop a few burlap roses in the mix.
I'm afraid to trim up the little extra bits throwing it off.
So, I'll leave it as-is and chalk it up to it being my first.

This photo just had a pretty sparkle... and I liked it.
See ya all soon!
I still have glue in my gun...

Girl, that is awesome! You put your own unique twist on it, with your creative flowers. I love love love it. Did I mention mine took me a few days, not ONE day and night? I think there is another blogging friend of mine attempting one too, I will let you know if she does it. I am proud of you, your first wreath!
It looks good to me. I think you did a great job and I wouldn't even have known it was your first wreath. I love the burlap flowers. It gives it that little something extra.

I absolutely love it! So not drunk at all :)
So inspiring!
Hope you are well.

Sabry!!
Good grief, Shannon! Its gorgeous! We are WAAAAAY to picky about the stuff we create. Don't pick it to death! Its looks wonderful! I especially love the burlap! Pinning!!!!!!
It's super cute Shannon!!! Great job. Remember, sometimes the beauty is in the flaws (although I can't see any!). Sometimes I think we are the most hyper critical of our own work! I love it... I think I will have to add one of them to my list of like 1000 DIY projects I want to do :)
All the best,
Diana ~ Anyone Can Decorate

I'm visiting from the Sunday Social blog hop. Love this wreath! I've been trying to think of a way to make a Valentine wreath without it being too Valentine looking..ie...not red or pink. Thanks for the inspiration!

Hey now, don't pick your lovely wreath TOO much. ;) I like the little wobbles! It makes it look so much more natural and it adds this cute flair to it that some of the more uniform ones lack. Very cute!
I can't wait to see how you did i! It's beautiful!

Wow, the burlap flowers make this piece! So unique with that something extra. I just saw this did on a lampshade and was amazed. I wanted something besides a flower wreath to go on my door, this will be perfect. Thanks for sharing.
I love it!! I've got some burlap flowers I used at Christmas that I've been wondering what to do with, but I'm almost out of coffee filters. Hmmm...Thanks for linking up.
