An Americana Wreath!
You will need:
- a grapevine wreath
- 7 rolls of ribbon
- America Sign
- Scissors
All of my supplies were bought at Dollar Tree for $9+tax!
Creative and Cheap!!

First: Pull the paper tag off the wreath, leaving the plastic tie -
you will use this to hang up your wreath.
Second: Cut up your ribbons to your desired length
Mine were about 12 inches.
Third: Start tying on the ribbon.
Tie on as much as you would like.
Fourth: Attach the America Sign onto the back. I simply untied one side of the sign and looped it through the plastic tie at the top. Then I re-threaded it, tied it off and nestled the sign a little bit crooked in the wreath. It fits just a little bit tight so it was perfect.

You can also just let it hang down in the front.
Just decide what you like and go for it!
Fifth: Hang it up and enjoy!

I'm going to be out on a Silly Bandz run this weekend. I think I'll have to pick this craft up. I love it. I'm the Anti-craft, so you've really got a winner here. lol
So fun! It reminds me of my favorite Halloween wreath (but the Halloween one is all black!
