Featuring A Fall Rake Wreath.

............................................................................

I found this idea/ inspiration on pinterest... gotta love pinterest. 

I wanted to make this into a wreath since the day I saw it. 

Here is what the rake looks like... cute, simple and Pretty for fall.

I did not have a metal rake on hand, and plastic to me wasn't going to work. 

So after going to some thrift stores and searching for a rake, I broke down and 

bought a brand new rake. I found it at Walmart for only $8.. so not too bad.

I then went off to the dollar store and found some pretty "fall" colors for floral.

I took the wooden handle off {with some help, it was stuck on there good} and spray 

painted the rake with premier, and then gold metallic spray paint. After it dried,  I laid 

the floral onto the front of the rake and used floral wire to hold it in place.

Next, I took some ribbon and wrapped the end, that the 

handle was in and hot glued that down.

Next I took the floral wire and wrapped it around to 

make a loop for it to hang on the hook on our door. 

After I added the loop to hang it, I hung it on the door it see how it looked and then 

added the bow to the bottom... I didn't hot glue the bow on I just used floral wire, 

that way if I wanted I could change the bow for Halloween and or Thanksgiving.

What do you think? 

Thanks for taking to time to stop by and read about my wreath.
