I am so excited to share this easy DIY monogram wreath. I recently heard a designer on television say something like, “In the south, if it ain’t moving..we monogram it.” Well this Colorado girl is loving a monogram! I snagged the greenery from Hobby Lobby. I added a wood letter from Michaels. I love how it pops from the front door. I plan to add berries for the holidays! What do you think?
Supplies
Grapevine wreath from Michael’s (with coupon)
Garland branches (2) from Hobby Lobby (weekly sale)
Wire cutters to cut the stems.
I just cut the stems off the garland and wove it between
the grapevine branches. I didn’t use glue (I’ll see how it holds up this week).
I could not get the acrylic thread to attach to the “N” so I used wire and hid the wire under the stems. Having the wire show is like panty lines… not pretty but sometimes it’s just easier!
Loving it!

I use a method very similar to this for my green wreaths & they hold up great! You can’t beat a basic green wreath with a monogram!
