Since it's still in the 100's here for at least another two months, I figured I'd get started on a new fall project to bring fall to my home, no matter what the weather is outside! Read on to see how I turned this
into this beautiful decoration for my door!
I made a quick trip to Michaels for some supplies. Right now is the perfect time to hit that place up because they have all their fall decor and craft supplies on sale- even up to 40% off! So, I bought a wheat berry "bush", a sunflower "bush", and a pick of orange flowers, all on sale.
I am by no means great at floral arranging, but I knew I wanted the sunflowers as a central focus in the piece.
The wheat berry bush provided some fullness and height, so I placed it in the back.
The orange flowers on the side softened things up a little.
Once everything was in place, I bound them together with floral tape (not pictured). Then I tied myself a beautiful fall bow. The key to a gorgeous bow is wired ribbon. Mine is 1 1/2 inches wide. The wire helps your loops stay full, and you can add a little shape to your tails if desired.
This is a perfect piece to hang on your door, inside or out. Unfortunately my security door makes the outside of my door pretty useless, so I think I'll use it to bring fall inside!
