Summer Wreath Before and After


Happy Monday morning to everyone,
We are busy putting our living room and master bedroom back together after the carpet was installed on Thursday. Now we are waiting for our bedroom furniture to arrive on Tuesday. Only  the chest of drawers and two night stands will be delivered tomorrow. The bed will be delivered around the 26th of May. In the meantime we have been sleeping in our covered patio in our old King size bed.It has been wonderful.  I just love to sleep outside. If you would like to see my new bedroom furniture
go here.
Now on to my new Summer Wreath above. 
 I found the pink tulip wreath at Tuesday morning after Easter for 50% off  $20.00 dollars.
 Very nice wreath for $10.00 dollars.
The most fun I have is transforming one wreath from season to season. But my pink wreath is only  going to see Spring and Summer. The wreath below was my  fall wreath with the letter Y painted black.
This is my spring wreath with a Forthysia garland added and a burlap and chevron ribbon.
I painted my Y  one shade of Chartreuse and the ribbon is another color of Chartreuse.
HISTORY LESSON:
Chartreuse (US /ʃɑrˈtrz//ʃɑrˈtrs/ or RP /ʃɑːˈtrɜːz/;[1] French pronunciation: ​[ʃaʁtʁœz]) (the web color) is a color halfway between yellow and green that was named because of its resemblance to the green color of one of the French liqueurs called green chartreuse, introduced in 1764. Similarly, chartreuse yellow is a yellow color mixed with a small amount of green that was named because of its resemblance to the color of one of the French liqueurs called yellow chartreuse, introduced in 1838
I love finding out that I have a little french influence on my front porch. 
Wreath $10.00
Free letter 
Ribbon $1.97 at Walmart.
One artificial pink Day Lily stem $3.00 at Walmart  
Ta Da!!!  I have a festive summer wreath MY WAY...

Hope you have a wonderful week. I will try to post something on Thursday, but I can't promise.

Joyously,
Betty

  2. Very creative when you can have a wreath cover four seasons. The pink lily wreath is pretty and I'm sure you receive many compliments on it.
    Thank you for linking to Mosaic Monday Betty.
