Spring time wreath

So This weekend I went to a bunch of thrift stores and got some treasures. One of the things I found was a basket of decorative sunflowers. So I grabbed those because they were perfect for the spring time wreath I wanted to hang on my door.



Materials:
Decorative flowers (any kind you would like ) I chose sunflowers
Circle Styrofoam wreath or metal Coat hanger
Hot glue gun

Gather all your materials 
if using a metal coat hanger bend the bottom on it so it is shaped into a circle. 


Next you need to pick all the flowers off of their stems and remove the backings of the flower that way it will stick better to the wreath. Removing the backing separates the layers of the flowers so you  will need to use your hot glue gun and glue each layer together 

Once you remove all flowers and backings and glue all layers together you can now begin gluing your flowers on the wreath. I like to arrange my flowers to see how they fit before I just start gluing but that is completely up to you. 


I glued down the wreath with just the sunflowers and little white flowers but It still looked kind of plain so I pulled off the fake leaves and glued them down as well. It looked more full . Then it was ready to hang on my door for everyone to see.
