Christmas Chair Wreaths

Before you even say it, I know it isn’t even Halloween yet 😉  Don’t worry, I haven’t lost my mind and decorated for Christmas…promise! I have, however, started planning, and want to share this simple DIY.  Like it or not, it’s creeping up fast, and the closer it gets, the less time we will seem to have for projects such as this.

As you already know, I love to style tablescapes.  This year I am upping my game and adding these mini Christmas wreaths to my chairs.  They were so much fun to make and super easy!  I made 4 wreaths, so supplies needed will depend on how many you plan to make.

Items needed:

  1. Mini wreaths – I used grapevine
  2. Greens – fresh or faux – I used faux
  3. Faux berries or beads
  4. Ribbon
  5. Hot Glue Gun
  6. Thin piece of craft wood
  7. Americana Chalkboard Paint
  8. Americana Chalkboard Coating
  9. Chalk – I used a pen
  10. Velcro

First, I cut the thin piece of craft wood into 4 equal sizes.

*Always protect your work surface with newspaper or an old sheet.

I painted 1 coat of Americana chalkboard paint.  After it quickly dried, I painted 1 coat of Americana chalkboard coating.  I recently became familiar with DecoArt, and love their products.

Season your chalkboards by lightly rubbing chalk over the entire surface.  Erase with a damp cloth.

I began constructing the mini wreaths next.  First, I planned how I wanted them to look by just placing items without gluing, in order to know how much of a particular item I would need and where to place it.

Once I knew how I wanted it to look, I began hot gluing the items to the wreath.

I measured my ribbon and laid it around the top of the wreath so I knew where it wouldn’t  interfere with the garnish.

I added some sugared berries as a final touch.

I folded the ribbon at the base and hot-glued it to secure.

Next, I wrote Peace, Joy, Love, and Family on the mini chalkboards.

Flip the wreath upside down gently on your surface and simply center the chalkboard on back and hot glue 4 corners.  I did this the hard way.  Adhering the chalkboard with script already written before applying the items to the front of the wreath would have been smarter 😉

How cute, right!

I used velcro to secure the mini wreaths to my chairs.  I placed a piece on the front of my chair, and a piece at the top of my ribbon.  I adhered the two pieces and gently draped the mini wreath over the back of my chairs.

They just add a little more ambiance to an already, glamorous Christmas table.  I hope you found this rewarding <3  I will share my full Christmas tablescape in a later post.

    Have you ever considered about including a little
    bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and everything.
    However just imagine if you added some great images or videos to
    give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics and video clips, this site could certainly be one of the
    very best in its field. Amazing blog!

    My coder is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on a variety of websites
    for about a year and am worried about switching to another platform.
    I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there
    a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it?
    Any help would be really appreciated!

    When someone writes an post he/she retains the idea of a user in his/her mind that how a user can be aware of it.
    So that’s why this paragraph is outstdanding.

    Its such as you read my mind! You appear to grasp so much
    approximately this, like you wrote the e book in it or something.
    I feel that you simply could do with some % to drive the message house a bit,
    however other than that, this is magnificent blog. A fantastic
    read. I will definitely be back.

    I’m really loving the theme/design of your site. Do you
    ever run into any browser compatibility problems?
    A few of my blog visitors have complained about my blog not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Opera.
    Do you have any solutions to help fix this issue?
