Ballard Inspired Pinecone Wreath

I “made” this wreath in about 5 minutes today

This was one of the easiest projects I have ever done! I bought this pinecone wreath at a yardsale a few months ago, and it’s just sat in the closet.

Then I found this pinecone wreath from Ballards Design.

Now, it’s only selling for $29.00, which really isn’t that bad. BUT, I got my wreath for $1.00, which is that much better.

I just dusted it with some leftover spray paint…

I then dug through my piles of scrap fabrics, and found a nice neutral color to make a hanger. I just cut it, and left the raw edges.

And here it is!
Nice! Not too bad for only $1.00!

   Hi Christina-What a great way to update a country style wreath into a very modern looking one. What would we do without spray paint?My best- Diane
