Smile Silk flower wreaths and other silk flower arrangements

Hi,

I've been doing this for a long time and it's easy and fun. Grapevine wreaths aren't that expensive and they make a beautiful door ornament, or wall ornament.
Silk flowers can be purchased (in bunches), for a dollar at your local dollar store. Take wire cutters and remove the flowers leaving some of the stem intact. Choose colors for each season, or if inside, colors that match your room. Weave the stem between the grapevine in the wreaths and just keep going till it looks right to you.
These are also really good for craft fairs; especially around the holidays - they sell like crazy, as people buy them for their homes and also for gifts.
You can also do them in (instead of grapevine), wicker, straw and anything else you can think of. Forms come in hearts, wreaths and various other things that all will look different in your home or at a craft fair.


Besides, it's fun!

Kat
