Plastic Bag Wreath {part 2}

Hey everyone! I just wanted to share a little update I came up with today for the Plastic Bag Wreath.
A dear friend gave birth to a sweet baby girl today, so before we went to visit her, I whipped one of these up for her hospital room door...


Here is what I changed and added to make it sweet~new~baby~girl~worthy...

I used pink receiving blanket material to wrap the wreath. {you know, the super soft slightly fuzzy why~don't~they~make~this~stuff~for~adults stuff.}

Then I made a few flowers with the same material an my handy dandy die cutter and layered them in with the other flowers. It made them even more fluffy and sweet. :)

{see the extra little pink flowers?}


Then I took the original material that I covered the wreath with and cut a thin strip. I twisted it from one side to the other and pinned the right side with the pins from the flowers and then added a little pink flower on the left to pin the other side.


Then I just cut some triangles out of card stock, wrote out her name, and hot glued them to the fabric.

{here is the back-side view...}

And there you have it! A sweet update for a sweet baby girl!

Here is the wreath on her door...


Welcome to the world, sweet Lyza~Grace! We love you already!

Really cute--plus I think it's a great idea to give someone some hospital room decor!
