I Made A Wreath Out of What?

Hate buying expensive wreath forms at Michael's and Joann's? Try using pipe insulation from Home Depot to make your next wreath! I got a 4 pack for $2.47! 
Just bend the insulation and secure the two ends with tape. I used painter's tape because that's what was closest to me. 

For this wreath, I decided to wrap it in yarn and make fabric rosettes again. I wanted another fall wreath for inside our house. 
I placed pins equal distances apart around the wreath so each section of yarn would be the same width. Then I started wrapping very carefully so each loop of yarn laid neatly beside the one before. 











Then it was time to make some more fabric rosettes. I used the same technique that I did for my last wreath. I made a few different sizes then hot glued them to the wreath.
Finished product! I'm waiting to find the perfect place for it once I get out all my fall decor!
