Look at what I did with a Dollar tree wreath and a few scraps!! (note: i did not use "auto" while taking any of these pics...I am practicing!!)
Step One: Pick your fabric. I chose a pink and a polka dot. I also gathered hot glue, coordinating buttons, and...actually I think that's all.
Then I made some fabric flowers. If you need help with that, see my "Jeans and a Sweater" post. That will give you a step by step. They are no-sew, just hot glue.
Step Two: Tear strips of fabric, the fabric you want to wrap your wreath. I chose pink.
Step Three: Hot glue the fabric to a part of the wreath. Then weave it in and out randomly. If you need to lengthen the strip, hot glue it to the end of the previous strip.
Step Four: Then I made a bow out of the strips of fabric, and a hanger. I hot glued the fabric flowers, the hanger, and the bow. VOILA! Dress up your door for $1 + time + a couple of misfires with a hot glue gun while trying to wrestle fabric out of the mouth of a baby pitbull!
