gumdrop wreath

My friend Bonny posted this right before the holidays. I went out and immediately bought all the supplies. I LOVE the all white but it turns out you need to have Martha Stewart budget to pull it off. I finally finished my wreath last night. It's heavy as heck and I'm still not sure how I'm going to hang it.

Supplies:
toothpicks (lots)
Gumdrops (lots-can be purchased in bulk at winco)
Styrofoam wreath

How to:
Break toothpicks in half
Put toothpick in gumdrop
Push toothpicks with gumdrop in styrofoam in rows or more clamped together(mine turned out more uniform than I expected)

This was supposed to post on my craft blog but I accidently published it here so I guess it's staying. oops!

  4. I want one!!! It is adorable

    Maybe to hang it you could put the nail on top of the door instead of in the door and use fishing wire. (make sense?)
