Second Chance to Dream: DIY Denim Wreath

Today, I’m so excited to share with you my latest project.  It’s a little shabby chic and a little country mixed.  I’m even more excited with the cost.  This whole project cost me $5.00. Here’s what you’ll need to make this DIY Denim Wreath:

  • a wreath base.  I had a straw one that I recycled from this project.
  • a pair of jeans.  I bought a pr of boys jeans from Goodwill (picture shows two pair but I only needed one.)
  • an old shirt to make flowers.  I bought the shirt at Goodwill for half price.
  • fabric scraps to make flowers.  I had left over fabric from this project.
  • Something to embellish the flowers.  I used stick on pearls.  You could also use buttons.
  • glue gun

supplies

  • Cut your jeans off in a straight line at the crotch.
  • Cut each pant leg into 4 strips.
  • Wrap each strip around the wreath being careful to overlap but not too much.  Hot glue each strip in place. It will look something like this when done.

I cut the shirt and my fabric scraps into strips and made flowers following the directions here and here.  I added one of the stick on pearls to the center of each. I hot glued them to make sure they wouldn’t come off.

Here is a picture of the flowers close up.

I added a ribbon left over from another project and then hung on my front porch.

Now I’m ready to enjoy spring on my front porch!!!
