I am not too sure why, but I have been bitten by the wreath bug.  The other day I finally took down our gorgeous fine Fraser fir and cypress wreath, and now my poor door looks so empty and sad.  I do not like it one bit.  So, I have been on a mission to find a wreath that can serve as a decorative piece year round or until I find another one that I love to replace it with.  I think I might have found the perfect one.  It is super cute and funky, so it is just my style.  It is a felt wreath.  Take a look…

Is it not absolutely adorable?  You can find the kojo designs tutorial for the wreath here.  It seems fairly simple though.  You will just cut out thick felt into circles and poke a wire hanger through the middle all the way around.  The bow design is a little complex for me, but I think I can make a great bow another way.

Here are some runner ups in my search for the perfect door wreath.  Let me know which you think is the best!

• I love how simple this wreath is.  The contrasting grey linen and ribbon are amazing, and it seems fairly easy to make (see the instructions here).  This one also require a wire hanger and just pushing it through the fabric.

• This wreath was made with red burlap.  The first thing I noticed though was that the wreath hanger had been painted the same color as the door.  Why have I not thought of this before now?  I mean what a great idea, right?  So, now I have to not only make a wreath, but also paint my wreath hanger! Find the instructions for this wreath here.  It seems doable.

• I really like the idea of putting the house numbers on the wreath.  It’s very cute.  I’m not crazy about the whole design, but these are pretty cute.
