Woodland Winter Wreaths

These woodland winter wreaths are a great way to bring outdoor charm indoors for the winter season.  Deer are beautiful creatures.  When I think of being outdoors in winter, I think of leafless tree limbs, pine cones on the ground and deer off in the distance.  This year, I decided to bring the outdoors inside for our winter decor.

White Deer Wreath

Supplies

• Embroidery hoop of desired size
• Paint (I used leftover wall paint from a touch up job I had just finished in the hallway earlier that day)
• Paintbrush
• Burlap ribbon in buffalo check print
• Stick stems with pine cones
• Hot glue gun with hot glue
• Twine
• Fishing line (optional)
• Large deer head ornament (I found this one at Hobby Lobby)

Directions

• Paint hoop and let dry
• Glue stems of sticks and pine cones on each side.  Make sure the hoop closure is on the top in the center.
• Tie the ornament to the top of the embroidery hoop with its hanging tie or with fishing line
• Create a bow using burlap ribbon
• To cover the clasp of the embroidery hoop and give a little color to the top of the wreath without adding a second bow, I created a loop from the burlap ribbon and glued it around the hoop clasp.
• Add twine to hang the wreath
