Good Enough to {Eat}: Berry Wreaths


I had envisioned something slightly different when I planned on making these wreaths, but I love the way they turned out.  They remind me of Valentine desserts : ) and they were soooo easy to make.  Super cheap, too.

I found these sprigs of berries at Hobby Lobby after Christmas for about $.50 a piece.  At the time, I really didn't know what I was going to use them for.  


You all know how much I love the Dollar Tree.  Here's one of the reasons why.  I found these floral foam frames that were just perfect for the project I had in mind.  I wrapped the foam with pink streamer (also from the Dollar Tree: two rolls for a $1) and hot glued the loose end.


After completely wrapping the entire foam frame, I cut off the berries and pushed them into the foam making a three ring pattern.


VOILA!! A yummy Valentine treat.
