Have you seen what the color of the year is?
It's Radiant Orchid.
It's a really pretty, pinky purplish color. But it's not a color I would normally use in my home.
Since I liked to only do projects that I can in someway use in my home, I was rather stumped coming up with a project to do with this color.
Then I decided to update the wreath on my front door.

Since I liked to only do projects that I can in someway use in my home, I was rather stumped coming up with a project to do with this color.
Then I decided to update the wreath on my front door.
I started with a burlap wreath. I didn't take photos of this step. Here is a tutorial if you need one.
I also added a few loops of gold polka dot ribbon.
The orchid felt I bought from my local craft store was really flimsy so I used spray adhesive
to attach it to some stiff white felt.
I drew a butterfly on some paper and then used it as a template to cut out some butterflies with the stiffened radiant orchid felt.
I thought the butterflies were a little plain so I gave them a little pizzazz with
gold and white puff paint polka dots and lines.
I hot glued some clothespins to the bottom of the butterflies.
I clipped the butterflies to the wreath loops.
I added a gold glitter initial and some burlap ribbon to hang the wreath.
