Watermelon Wreath Directions
Wrap half of the wreath in the pink grosgrain ribbon.
Slightly overlap ribbon as it is wrapped.
Wrap the other half of the wreath form with the lime green ribbon, again, with a slight overlap.
Cut the green ribbon into 5″ strips.
Seal the ends by passing lightly through a flame.
Layer green ribbon over the lime green ribbon, leaving ~3/4″ of lime color showing on front of wreath, matching the overlap of the lime green.
Hot glue in place.
Add “seeds” to the watermelon by hot gluing assorted black buttons on top, front, and inside of pink ribbon on wreath form.
I used two different sizes of buttons.
Paint the “welcome” sign with 2 coats of the Multi-Surface paint.
Once dry, hot glue to front of wreath.
Top off the wreath with a bow from the plaid ribbon.
Trim ends of ribbon and get ready to hang that beauty up!
