Mother's day is coming up and I am always on the lookout for fun porch decor for my mom. She has a very large porch on her victorian home. She spends a lot of time porch sitting and relaxing. I hope she loves this spring floral hoop. She gets a nice breeze blowing across the porch so I think this will be perfect.
Supplies:
- Gwen Studios Ribbon
- Pink Grosgrain 7/8 inch
- Lavender Grosgrain 1 1/2 inch
- Pastel Grosgrain 3/8 inch pack
- Hot Pink Grosgrain 7/8 inch
- 10 inch wood embroidery hoop
- Low Temp Glue Gun and glue sticks
- Paper flowers in various styles
I cut lengths of ribbon 24 inches long from a all the rolls, between 3 and 6 each. Using low temp glue - because I will get it on my fingers every single time- I started layering the ribbons on the hoop.
Once the ribbons were all in place I trimmed the tops of the ribbons close to the hoop. I didn't worry about getting them perfectly even because I knew that the flowers would hide the edge.
I dug through my supply of flowers and pulled out a bunch of spring pastel colors. I just grabbed a mix of small and large flowers and some brads. I love layering Prima flowers! I like to stack an assortment and then attach them with a brad. Once all that was done I adhered a line of flowers to extend past the ribbons on both sides.
This is gorgeous
