Spider Halloween Wreath

I've been pinning a lot of wreath ideas on Pinterest lately. I had never made a Halloween wreath before, and thought I'd give it a whirl this year.  I used the following materials for this wreath in particular:

• a straw wreath from Hobby Lobby
• leftover ivory burlap from my stash
• chevron burlap from Hobby Lobby
• a glitter spider from Michaels
• a piece of cardboard
• chalkboard vinyl from Michaels
• chalk

I wrapped the straw wreath form first in the ivory colored burlap. I wanted to originally wrap it only in the the chevron burlap, but I realized that I would use the entire roll up with one wreath. I wanted to have the option to use the chevron for other projects.  Then I wrapped the wreath every inch or so with the chevron burlap strips.

I cut apart one of my many Amazon boxes, and then wrapped that in chalkboard adhesive vinyl. I attached the cardboard/vinyl piece with some hot glue to the back of the wreath.

Finally I added a little spider with a clothespin attached to it onto the wreath. I was glad I didn't have to glue it. I think I will be able to make this wreath work for another holiday down the road by taking off the spider and erasing the center . Then I draw a quick web with some chalk to make it even more ready for Halloween.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!
