Welcome to the second installation of the Best of DIY Tour where 24 of my friends and I are sharing some of our newest projects!

I am hosting Easter at my house this year, and while I have already decorated the inside of the house, my front door was still looking a little bare. I wanted to make an Easter wreath, but didn’t have a lot of extra time to devote to it, so I decided on something quick and easy.

Here is what I used:

• A grapevine wreath,

• Some artificial hydrangeas,
  
• A moss covered bunny (I got this at Michael’s for 40% off)
• A roll of floral wire,
• A pipe cleaner, and
• A roll of ribbon.

I chopped down the stems on the flowers with a wire cutter. I then used floral wire to attached them to the wreath. Make sure that your flowers are placed low enough that your bunny will show.

Next, I hot glued my bunny on.

I then tied a loop around the top of my wreath, making a knot. I used my bow maker to make my bow, and then attached it to the loop with a pipe cleaner.

This was super easy and took less than 15 minutes to do!

I’ve been busy working on my gallery wall for my basement, and I decided I needed one of the ever-popular arrows you have seen all around. I wanted a fairly large one, and I didn’t want to dish out the money to buy one, so I Topher decided to build one.

I had an old pallet sitting in the garage that I scored for free a while back, and a really old piece of tongue-and-groove board.

For the arrowhead, I simply cut two triangles from the tongue-and-groove so the pieces would line up right and fit snugly together….
