If you hopped over after visiting Carol from Bluesky at Home, aren't her air-dry clay eggs pretty?  I bet I am not the only one who occasionally makes over a makeover--am I right?! I originally featured the upcycle of this thrift store egg garland back in 2015. Here's the before:

Since this rustic garland was constructed with twiggy wire, all I used to make this rustic wreath was the garland and a simple hoop. However, you can create a similar look by wrapping twiggy floral stems and attaching the eggs with wire or hot glue. Adding a bow is optional depending on your preference. Below, you can see how I wrapped the wired garland tightly around the hoop to create the wreath and then trimmed a few of the longer twigs.

Here's a view of how I styled the wreath and hung it over my mantel. Stay tuned for more of my spring decor--I'll be sharing my home tour on March 24!

I added a narrow velvet ribbon for a touch of elegance and the vintage frame really makes the rustic wreath pop!

  7. Cecilia, What a great way to update a wreath for spring and Easter. The pretty blue eggs in different shades are a stand-out. The entire vignette with the sweet ribbon, a scalloped-edge blue plate, and the cute bunnies is a lovely spring decoration.
