YES YOU CAN MAKE A WREATH!
select any flower that is pleasing to you, I used little clusters of white flowers , clusters of yellow fuzzies, & long greenery stems cut to fit to my liking, doing the same on both sides,the lady bug is from a set of metal lady buys that have, tracing the smallest one as a pattern, she is painted a barn red, dots are made using the top of a craft paint bottle, antenna's are made using black floral wire, twisting to the shape of your liking & dabbing a touch of glue on the ends & just poke through the top of her head, let dry & lightly sand,lady bugs are attached by inserting the floral wire underneath the bottom & wired through the wreath, most flowers are just pulled through but if they are in a spot you really like & wont stay then wire them to the wreath
And whaaa Laaaaa you've made a wreath! & who knows maybe I'll get arounf to making me one! LOL
