    Repurposed Garden Hose Wreath

    It's almost a new month which means it is almost time for a new wreath on my front door. This time around I went with something I saw on Pinterest years ago: a Repurposed Garden Hose Wreath.

    Repurposed Garden Hose Wreath

    Gray isn't exactly my first color choice for this, but the whole idea behind my wreaths this year is to make do with what I already have. And I had a pretty badly beaten gray house.

    To make this, I started by coiling the hose until I got the dimensions I wanted and tied off the end.

    gardening wreath(3)I had a tiny little clay pot I wanted to use, but couldn't figure out how to glue it on securely. Instead I had a little seed starter pot that I cut in half.

    gardening wreath(4)I filled it with foam, stuck some plant tags in it and added some moss to cover the foam.

    I glued on some seed plastic seed packets (the paper ones will not hold up, I'm sure) and tied on the tools and gloves to finish the look.

    My 7 year old was so excited about a new wreath for the door that he almost looked up from his game to see the finished project before he exclaimed "Looks great, Mom" in that monotone "don't bother me I am playing voice" us Moms know all too well.

    Well, I don't care if he or his dad aren't interested. I like it. And so does my mommy who got a sneak peek via text! ha ha!
