They call me mellow yellow....
I have always wondered why yellow is often paired with the phrase mellow. To me, yellow is anything BUT mellow. It is a bright, cheerful, and energetic color that reminds me of sunshine, and when paired with gray looks fabulous. I have wanted to start decorating my house with these two colors and when I noticed my front door needed a little bit of sophisticated love I went hunting(thrifting) for supplies. I found a branch wreath for $1, gray twisted paper ribbon for $0.50, a cool yellow hot pad for $0.25, and a multi yellow colored pack of string. After organizing my thoughts for a bit, I got to work. The project took about 45 minutes to make start to finish and was fun to make. Hope you like my knew wreath.
Some of the string I used
The tag for the Jumbo Twist Paper Ribbon
Hot glue and vuala...
I made the flowers out of the yellow/white hot pad I found and string
I love how it turned out:)
Hope you enjoyed. Come back tomorrow if you would like to see the new summer top I made for Bella, it is adorable.
