Spring Wreath!

Today I tried really hard to find a spring wreath (I just finally took down my Christmas one).  In summer, I have a star I put up, but I didn't really feel like it was time for that yet...

I went to a few places with no luck.  I really don't love the look of fake flowers, so I was looking for something with berries.  Pier 1 had a nice one, but it was really small and Brad thought you'd hardly see it from the street.  Then they had a massive one, which was way too big (and $65!!!).

Brad suggested I make one.  I was hesitant because I'm not very crafty (I know, weird for a teacher, but it's true).  But at JoAnn's I was able to find a plain grapevine wreath, then I just got some berries and stuff to put it in.  I think it turned out okay!  And it only ended up costing me $20 and about a half hour of my time.  Not bad!
